Donald said he'd pay down the debt in 8 years. He instead added more debt than any other president in history.

insists he would be able to wipe out the United States’s debt in eight years.


{mosads}The Republican presidential front-runner said in a wide-ranging interview with The Washington Post that he’d be able to get rid of the more than $19 trillion debt “over a period of eight years.”

Eliminating that amount of debt in eight years is highly improbable, according to most economists, The Washington Post reported. It could require using $2 trillion a year from the annual $4 trillion budget to pay off holders of the debt.

Trump insisted in the interview that “renegotiating all of our deals” would help pay down the debt by sparking economic growth.

“The power is trade. Our deals are so bad,” Trump said. “I would immediately start renegotiating our trade deals with Mexico, China, Japan and all of these countries that are just absolutely destroying us.”

The Washington Post also refuted that claim, reporting that many economists have said a trade war could cripple the U.S. economy.

Trump is a big, fat liar. Sad.

We are going to hit a record high for debt as a ratio of GDP.... Must be the worst time in American history or something.

 

[Nordberg]

Trump is a noise maker. He says whatever he thinks will get votes. The truth has nothing to do with him. That is what he calls winning, lying to the suckers. Trump jacked the debt up in 4 years more than presidents dealing with real crises did. He does not care about the debt at all.

 

[Grokmaster]

More bullshit from the always wrong CBO.

 

[Cypress]

MAGA morons posting on this board don't care if Trump's a pedophile or whether he skyrockets the nation's debt.

They are a Cult and will defend their Tangerine Pedophile to the very end.

I miss the days when Republicans stood for fiscal responsibility and personal accountability. Sad.

The President does not pay the national debt not incur the national debt. CONGRESS does.

Trump is not a pedophile.
Trump does not incur the national debt.

This from a Democrat that ignored the 34% inflation during the Biden/Obama years.

Take your lithium, son. I was never a Democrat.

I did not always agree with the Republicans, but they used to actually believe in things... Now it is just a cult of personality.

The time is ripe for a real conservative party to take over. I think Elon should buy out and merge the Libertarian Party with his America Party.

You are describing Democrats. You cannot blame Republicans for the problems of Democrats.

It already has, Sybil.

You're a librul, tranny-dick sucking, lefty commie who likes it up the ass, son. Your mother would be very disappointed in you.

Do you wipe the cum off your lips before you kiss her?

 

[Walt]

You are describing Democrats.

I say the Republicans have started worshipping a person, trump, rather than anything else, and you say it is the Democrats who worship a person... Which person is that? Seriously.
