'Murica! (268 Viewers)

That's 24 years ago. And I'm not sure we're talking about the same thing. The US debt has kept on increasing since forever and I doubt any president will change that. Nor I think it's possible.

Debt doesn't really matter as long as it looks like you pay up eventually, even if you pay with new debt.

Kind of sucks to have a record debt with a president arguably most famous for never paying his debts. That is a very real issue. How are the US getting money right now?

It's not through taxes. And they can't borrow.

Well with a budget surplus you shouldn't have to take on additional loans so there's no increase in principal, and the extra money can go towards paying additional debt.

Speaking of budget surplus, politico story on DOGE is wild. They tracked down about $32B dollars of “savings” and found the actual number was $1.4B, and it won’t be returned to the treasury, but to the same departments to be used elsewhere.

Not surprising at all but Trumpers who ate that shit with a spoon and drooled over more should be ashamed.

PPI up 3.7% y/y, largest monthly jump in years, all due to the tariffs.

So much for the narrative that Trump was going to bring inflation under control. He was always going to make it worse, and the numbers back that.

Maybe not vote for folks who use the word bigly.

Chairman Trump's view of American history lmfao. Who cares what that lumpy sack of orange shit thinks about history.

i know what you mean, just a small clarification: you can run a deficit and still lower the debt by allocating some of your budget toward debt repayment

a good national/federal budget usually has a slight deficit. when you have a surplus, it means that you failed to spend all the available public resources on public purposes

add that to the revised climate reports seven mentioned and you truly have some orwellian shit going on

welcome to the official enemy of the state list
as soon as you land in America you will be sent to El Salvador expeditiously.

How they intertwine themselves with all aspects of every day life is the exact opposite of what a "conservative" President would want to do. Then MAGA cries when they're called Nazis and Fascists.

There's no way back from this if half of the country seriously wants to be ruled by a dictator. It's over with.

I really don’t see a problem if the history books and museums are revised to show dear leader Trump as one of our founding fathers or Trump being the first person to walk on the moon etc.

MAGA members probably know already that MAGA is cancer but it’s their cancer so they’ll be fine with it.
