Members of congress should be ineligible for re-election any year the deficit exceeds 1% of GDP.
Any federal agency that fails an audit should have an automatic 10% reduction in funding every year until it passes an audit.
Tax billionaires out of existence.

As long as we allow billionaires to extort Americans to build their wealth, this should never be a tax paying Americans problem....

As always, national debt doesn't work anything ilke personal debt and once again this is right wing propaganda as every scare about the national debt *ALWAYS IS*. Guys, I'm sorry you didn't get the memo but EVERY SINGLE MAJOR NEWS NETWORK IS TRUMP ALIGNED NOW. They are spreading this fear ahead of the midterms to campaign on it as well as support the timed effort (time for just after the elections) of gutting SSA and Medicare, etc. it is 100% bullshit. But please, be a pawn.

National debt is just a very good excuse to say "we can't help the poor" and give more money to the already rich because "it helps national debt."

see thats the other "present" for his friends, long term interets payments no future government ever can get off from.

Between Trump and W they are responsible for at least half of the debt. pArTy Of FiScAl ReSpOnSiBiLiTy

I can't see the phrase "here's why that matters" without immediately thinking AI.

...which is roughly 8 x the USA federal government's total annual revenue I think?

Also the interest rate on that debt is skyrocketing too.
pm1001
25% of all tax revenue now goes to paying off the debt. That's the second way his tax cuts hit regular folks. That money could be spent on good stuff. 1 trillion Dollars last year

He bankrupted 3 casinos, you think he couldn’t bankrupt the US.
TrumpRocks317
Well, to do that...he would need to stop making money for the U.S. and then, go and do what Clinton, Obama and Biden all did. Then yes, he could possibly bankrupt my country.

This will be the justification to end Medicare/Medicaid and social security.
TrumpRocks317
Yeah, because that would be completely consistent with his policy thus far right? if you have a dictionary, I invite you to: A. Look up the word "Imbecile" read its descripton. B. Place the dictionary down, and go look in the closest mirror. Wait for it....wait for it!
NM156
The policy in the Big Beautiful Bill that will makes huge cuts to Medicare and Medicaid? Those policies?

We've gone this high in world war 2. That's the only time.
Back then, we had a good reason for it. This time? There's nothing to justify this. Nothing at all.

Lets start be seizing every fucking cent trump and his family grifted for since 2016, then tax the billionaires until they are only 999-millionaires.
HaveANiceFace
No we seize everything

And start with walmart which is going to receive a tariff refund of over $2-Billion.

If you were to seize the entire net worth of every billionaire in the United Stares you’d have less than $8 trillion

This is what happens when you put ”fiscally responsible” Republicans in power. Bet there’s going to be another recession under Republican presidency again. 10 out of the 11 U.S. economic recessions in between 1953 and 2020 began under Republican presidents.

FellaHellaDumbella, did you read my comment earlier up above? if you own a dictionary...A....Yeah, you need to do the same, follow the instructions I gave to that nice, sadly empty, and showing the same symptoms of TDS that you are. (I know you can't figure it out, the medical and psychological proven Trump Derangement Syndrome contagion). American Medical Associations own words: "The only cure is having the infected exposed to proven and written factual data regarding their own stupidity".

According to FOX Business, over a quarter, $11.5 trillion, of US National Debt have happened during Trump.

Remember When Doge and the tariffs were going to pay off the federal deficit and make this country a Utopia?
TrumpRocks317
And remember when the democratic party raised such chaos over that, that they contacted their rhino republican friends and they all pushed to have the public reveal of their crimes halted, because DOGE was coming far to close to exposing them, that Trump relented? it is still going on, just not being announced on live press conferences. Are you a Democrat, a Republican, or a Marxist?

Hello troll, just fyi Trump is gonna die soon bc he is a weak old rapist who has never lifted a finger to do a oz of hard work his whole life. He is the laziest “strongman” I have ever fucking seen & his bloated orange sack of a body is giving out on him while he shits himself insane. Vance could never fill Trump’s racist little shoes, ur party will die with him. The world will celebrate on the day he dies and maybe then we can show you how much of a minority MAGA really is, yall r just loud af

“Utopia”, meaning “land that does not exist”.
They set out to destroy the country, and are well on their way.

Yes but SCOTUS destroyed the country forever by stopping that doncha know.

The Country is correct Buttheadscratch. Not your country to be sure. Hey, there are plenty of other countries you can relocate too! please, by all means!

Thank you for activating this slightly aged troll account today, comrade.

I know, I am so disappointed, but it must be Biden's fault..... (/stupid fucks)
TrumpRocks317
No, its the full 20 some years (including Bidens embarrassment) that should have you disappointed. Two full terms of the former purposeful financial destruction of the U.S. which included flooding the country with illegal aliens all the while, giving them shelter in five star hotels nearly bankrupting them, and the State of New York and the East coast while rolling out the red carpet to the mostly criminal element that flooded over our borders.

I suggest you do your own math… I did and the result was surprising…
TotalDebtAddedByAnAdministration = DebtWhenTheirTermEnds - DebtWhenTheirTermBegins
Dure there is a little bit of lagging ofc… but try that and see what results you get…
