I don’t know where you get this from, there is no evidence of this anywhere. They are talking constantly about paying down the national debt as one of the top priorities for this initiative. It has ballooned to 36T under the previous administration and it is at the point where it could become a real crisis for the country if it’s not addressed. Interest payments alone will outstrip all defense spending soon.
Trump just announced a tax plan targeting the middle class. Specifically removing the carried interest deduction which hurts rich people!
Have you noticed how many of the top leaders in the cabinet are former democrats? Most of these people are moderates who want to actually reduce waste and fraud.
- lawn 2y agoFirstly, the debt grew more under Trump's previous term than under Biden[0]. If you want to put your head in the sand now, fine. Remember though that Trump made large tax cuts for the rich last time and they've said they'll do that again. How does paying down the national debt with them shutting down agencies that make money? Or shutting down CFPB that returned over $20 billion to consumers? You're getting fooled.
