Nonsense. Trying to deflect from your Never-Trump disaster electing Biden and his open orders giving the US to democrats forever. You commie traitor.What are you on about?
I stated quite plainly and clearly in the OP that when the current $3 trillion is added to his previous $7.8 trillion, it would take Trump 27 million years of his salary to pay that back. What part is confusing you?
It is implied that Trump was donating his salary to pay down the debt.
Much is made by some MAGAs that Donald Trump claims to donate his $400,000 annual salary.
What goes ignored is that Trump sucked $7.8 trillion of debt out of the economy during his first presidency.
Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill is estimated to add another $3 trillion to the debt.
In order to break even, Donald Trump would have to remain president, and donate his salary, for the next 27 million years.
And we are only less than six months into Trump 2.0.
In the modern era, every Republican president has exceeded the deficits of his Democratic predecessor.

Always remember, Bobby, Republicans are the party of fiscal responsibility.
The truth hurts, doesn't it.
But then he goes on to give these useless facts about what might happen if he put it towards the national debt.At no point was that implied. This is the exact quote - "Much is made by some MAGAs that Donald Trump claims to donate his $400,000 annual salary."
YOU LIE!Trump's only getting started. He's less than six months into his lame duck presidency and he already piled on $3 trillion of debt to be added to the $7.8 trillion he ran up in his first presidency.
Why do you think he just asked for a record $5 trillion raise of the debt ceiling?
Literally a record.
He's not done driving our country toward bankruptcy at record speed.
By the time he's done, he'll be responsible for one-third of our total debt.'
You know what is hilarious about you hacks?YOU LIE!
In post #30 I showed how it was more like $6.7 Trillion.
I also showed the trends since then.
Also his total, and this term is mostly projections at this point, being @$16.5 trillion will be more like one-third of the projected $46.8 trillion (assuming no great inflation sets in).
I never said it wasn't bipartisan.You know what is hilarious about you hacks?
With each passing month after he left office, you hacks kept increasing the amount of debt you claimed Obama ran up.
Now you are trying to decrease the amount of debt Trump ran up.
That's pathetic.
From the OMB:
Since taking office four years ago, President Biden has added $8.4 trillion to our national debt. To be fair, the Trump administration added $7.8 trillion to the national debt. This is truly a bipartisan problem.
Nope. I have never said that.I never said it wasn't bipartisan.
YOU are the one implying and saying it is only a "Republican" & "Trump" problem !
You are so full of shyte that a farmer would blend you with water to fertilize their fields !Nope. I have never said that.
But what I hear on this forum a LOT is "The Democrats do this" and "The Democrats do that".
Never both parties, especially when it comes to overspending.
This is why I keep bringing up the way the GOP overspends. Because there is a mountain of evidence the MAGA deliberately turn a blind eye to it.
They ***** and ***** and ***** about Democrat spending, then while Trump is and was president, they went completely radio silent.
Just as they are now over the Big ******* Spending Bill and over Trump demanding the debt ceiling be raised by a record $5 trillion.
Dead. *******. Silent.
So it becomes necessary to shake the **** out of them.
And look how you and they have reacted! "FAKE NEWS! WAAAAAAH!'
Willful. Blindness.
My number one issue is the debt. Because the debt is what will bring down our country.
Not gays. Not trannies. Not Mexicans. Not whatever other stupid hysteria the MAGA media throws at you to distract you from the shit which actually matters.
The debt will be our downfall, and it is far past time for the MAGA tards to wake to that fact and start holding their own team accountable.
As I do.
I never said it wasn't bipartisan.
YOU are the one implying and saying it is only a "Republican" & "Trump" problem !
You might be the smartest man in the world.Much is made by some MAGAs that Donald Trump claims to donate his $400,000 annual salary.
What goes ignored is that Trump sucked $7.8 trillion of debt out of the economy during his first presidency.
Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill is estimated to add another $3 trillion to the debt.

Irony!You only focus on Conservatives/Republicans(GOP) and never admit the larger role of the Leftist, Democrats, pseudo-progressives as the major players and part of growing the national debt !!!
I know you leftist democrats prefer talking points instead of facts. But we do agree on:Some simple math.
If the federal government collects the same revenues as it spends in outlays, we have what is called a "balanced budget".
Boy, we have not heard Republicans calling for a balanced budget in decades!
If the federal government collects LESS revenues than it spends, we have a deficit which gets added to the total debt.
If the government decides to collect EVEN LESS revenues through tax breaks for the rich and spends even more, then the deficit explodes, and it also gets added to the total debt.
If one looks at federal revenues after the Trump 1.0 tax cuts, we see revenues went up from 2017 through 2019 a pitiful, measly, weak 4 percent. I excluded the Covid years out of fairness.
So it looks like the tax cuts increased revenues a teeny, tiny bit right?
But revenues have increased every year for decades, even when Obama raised taxes!
What's more, if we look at the three years preceding Trump's tax cuts, we find revenues increased 8 percent. DOUBLE the next three years!
So those tax cuts really put a dent in revenues.
Now, if we look at outlays for the same period (2017 through 2019), we find Trump increased spending by 11 percent.
So the deficit grew. In fact, during that period Trump DOUBLED the federal deficit, and a good part of that was his tax cuts.
And not one MAGA complained.
LIAR. Trump and the BBB cut $1.5T off Biden's last budget.Trump knows something most Americans, and especially MAGAs, don't know.
He knows government spending is a large part of our GDP. So if you want to artificially juice GDP, you can increase government spending.
This way you don't have to do the heavy lifting of actually improving the economy.
Democrats know this, too, but Trump has taken it to a whole new level, shattering all previous debt records.
You democrats never cut spending. I disagree with Republican dogma that says "cutting taxes increases tax revenue".This is why Trump was not able to grow GDP by his promised five percent. That would require government spending that would wake even MAGAs our of their willful blindness. To keep the bracket entirely within Trump 1.0's term and away from the pandemic, let's look at the difference between GDP growth and spending growth in the period 2018 through 2019.
GDP growth for this period was 4.3 percent. Spending growth for this period was 8.2 percent. TA-DA! Artificial growth of GDP.
Trump is indeed exactly what he warned us: "I am the King of Debt!"
what makes it even dumber is that he actually took the time out to calculate his stupidity ..What a stupid fckn thread
