Trump calls for scrapping debt limit

[Mac1958]

Massively expanding the Deep State, removing the debt limit, spending like a drunken sailor (again), throwing the world economy and supply chains into a tizzy with random tariffs, putting America's Treasury Bonds and entire domestic bond market at serious risk, destroying the critical global economic, military and intelligence relationships we've been building for 80 years, firing thousands of federal workers with little planning for it, putting Medicaid in jeopardy, overtly threatening pretty much anyone who gets in his way. For starters.

Definitely the Revenge Tour™. On the whole planet.

The debt limit has to go down or we are heading for seriously fucked up shit in the next 10 to 20 years with our economy. The way the debt limit goes down is reducing federal government spending and cutting down the national debt. It’s one of the major things we pay for every year on our tax dollars and we only pay the interest. No, I’m not going for this bullshit idea. I’m not a ******* liberal. It’s time politicians need to learn to not throw our money away buying votes.

the debt limit can rise, without affecting the value of the dollar, but it HAS TO RISE SLOWER THAN ECONOMIC GROWTH. That is, the deficits have to shrink, over time, and if they do ... both they and overall debt will be smaller in comparison to the economy as a whole.

Trump assaulted our 2A twice.
He tried to give blacks $500 billion, just for being black (Platinum Plan)
He gave Pelosi every thing and every dime she wanted.
He fully funded the Dept. of Ed and all other government agencies.
He funded gender studies
He fully funded USAID.
He and Fauci were BFF's
He initiated the first 2 covid mandates.
He shoved a massively over priced flu shot in the faces of all Americans
Spend $8 trillion in 4 years. Creating a huge amount of inflation
Tried to shove a national healthcare plan down our throats.
Increase the debt ceiling 4 times and suspend it for 2 years.
Gave rich foreign countries like Israel $5 billion every year
Vetoed only 1 spending bill in 4 years
Give historical black colleges a millions
Give womens organizations millions.
And recently, pledge to have the Federal Government pay for women IVF's
Talked the oil companies into lowering oil production, which initiated the oil bust cycle of 2020


^^^^ How is any of this NOT something you democrats would've been proud of, had Biden done those same exact things?

Trumpfy is no Republican . What a quaint idea .

He is there doing work for Deep State and so far few have noticed what he is really doing .

He will kil the Bond market ( nobody wants the US$ anyhow) and then the other markets , reduce the dollar to minimum value and proceed to a Re-Set -- perhaps joining up as a member of the "BRICS plus " team .

Doubtless based on a claim that it will be good for all .
Along with full ID -- ---

But this BBB increases spending and deficits.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

TACO is still 1,000,000x better than anyone the democrats have.

But he's flat out not any better. America might as well have elected a democrat at this point. D/R = same lame big government, big debt bullshit.

Keep dreaming that, how well has that worked out the last 30 years? I’m a fiscal ******* conservative and this bullshit about raising the national debt limit is not acceptable when Trump is president just like it wasn’t when Biden was! Jesus Christ, we’re a country that can only pay our interest on the debt. We’re like a bunch of people that overspend on credit cards and wonder one day when they’re finally broke and evicted.

Big spending, big government republicans are doing their very best to destroy the USD and it's value. Eliminating the debt ceiling will only allow them to sink this ship. They're not even trying to get the spending under control.
He's siding with Elizabeth Warren..........

Trump is still a democrat at heart. His true blue colors shined bright last time he was in office. They're shining even bluer now.

Trump calls for scrapping debt limit​

President Trump on Wednesday doubled down on calls to scrap the nation’s debt ceiling, pressing for bipartisan action to abolish it and finding common ground with Democrat Sen. Elizabeth Warren (Mass.).

“I am very pleased to announce that, after all of these years, I agree with Senator Elizabeth Warren on SOMETHING. The Debt Limit should be entirely scrapped.........

Not surprised. I have seen some estimates floating about that his Big Beautiful bill will increase the debt by $5T in the near term, and not the $3.7 T being circulated.

 

[pknopp]

Have to laugh at demofks here, name one time the debt limit went down? How about before threats of shutting down government?

Be honest. Too much to ask?

Republicans spend just as much as Democrats.

Let me ask you: What purpose does the debt limit serve, other than giving each party a weapon to use against the other?

I oppose eliminating the debt ceiling, even if Trump supports it. I also oppose expanding it whenever Congress lacks the courage to stand firm.

Here’s an idea.

Let’s propose a "Spending Limit" and require every member of Congress to lose their job if they exceed it.

Republicans have increased the debt ceiling 54 times. Democrats have increased it 35 times.

See my post in the Economy forum. If you want to stop a forest fire, you may need to set back fires to contain it. Later on, you can bulldoze the entire area and plant new trees.

The only thing Republican voters should be proposing is finally supporting fiscal conservatism over these Trump lead RINO's.

Stop deflecting, bot. The Democrats don't hold the White House. The Democrats don't control either chamber of Congress. The Republicans have the trifecta and they promised to reduce waste and rein in spending. They've barely done shit, as usual.

No.

We should be proposing throwing out every Democrat in public office and every Republican who will not hold the line on spending.

You're never going to convince that Trumpbot that Trump and the GOP are wrong about anything. He's one of the most brainwashed RINO's I've ever seen.

If Trump can get the debt ceiling eliminated, he'll either say it's the right thing to do, or blame it on the democrats.
