And like 25% of that is from Trump… so far.
Looks like the Treasury Department needs a new head.
Republicans love running up the debt.
Maybe don’t give the Uber wealthy tax breaks.
Turns out firing 25% of federal employees or whatever somehow increases the deficit. Republicans found a bang up job as always
Nobody panic! Trump has a plan to eliminate the national debt: he’s going to fire the head of the Treasury Department. Poof! No more debt!
I’m surprised that anyone is surprised.
Trump is singularly ill-equipped to manage a complex economy and he has surrounded himself with people who are either economically illiterate or who are too scared to raise objections to Trump’s insane ideas.
To put that in perspective, if that debt is divided by the US population, every man, woman, and child owes 108k. Most Americans don’t even have anywhere close to 108k in liquid assets.
Promised to eliminate the National debt in 8 years in 2016. I don’t think he’s going to make it, even if you forgive the Biden portion.
Once again the party of fiscal responsibility has shown that only their rich benefactors matter to them and the rest of the country be dammed.
So who reported this and how fast will they get fired?
RIP treasury department
Can someone explain to me when the debt actually starts to matter?
“Party of small government”
◔_◔
How long before the treasury starts putting out „Donald Approved“ numbers?
So, it’s going to surpass $40T before Trump leaves office. All the dipshits who voted for Trump because “hE’ll rEdUcE thE DEbt” want to go ahead and make excuses now, or shall we wait?
The deficit created by “One Big Beautiful Bill” will increase this number by almost 9.5%
Great work Maga dumbasses.
I was told they were going to balance the budget. What happened?
/s
Damage is so bad that even if we entertain just for funzees that a democrat ever gets back into power again, it’ll for sure take far more than 8 years to dig us out of this; all the while the usual “look how bad things are right now under a democrat” headlines will be blasted everywhere which of course will lead to another GOP course correct by the public because we can’t EVER learn from history, god forbid. There can never be an American utopia with this cycle.
It will be 50 trillion by 2028. This administration is spending money like a drunken sailor. And the fiscally responsible republicans won’t do a thing other than cut benefits for the working poor.
Thanks Trump. No cost cutting actually happening.
Trickle down economics in action. Tax cuts for the top, subsidies for the corporations, no relief for the middle class.
incomming termination of treasury secretary for publishing bad numbers to be replaced by new secretary that will forego publishing debt numbers
because if you dont open the mortgage bill you dont owe the bank… right?
Can’t trust government numbers.
Uh oh… whoever reported that be ready to get fired!
Insane to spend that much and not have a decent public transit system to show for it.
About 1/6 of that is because of Trump.
Having been President for 5 years all together, trump has been President for roughly 2% of American history.
That motherfucker is responsible for 22% of our national debt.
One fucking guy. Almost a quarter of the debt.
When they come for the social safety net, remember they gave the wealthy $1T in tax breaks they didn’t need.
Last candidate to run a surplus budget was a Democrat by the way
Odd how the budget explodes every time a Republican is in office… they ran on cutting the budget yet are spending at record levels, despite having all the power. Too bad their voter base are too stupid to vote in their own interest.
This happens when your country and economy are hot hot hot. Right….right……??
But look at how much Trumps golf course, coin, and properties have been taking in for him. Some say it’s the biggest grift of all time. Some say it may even cause a revolution against billionaires.
Filling the coffers right Donny?
Fake news, fire the Treasury Department!
This stopped being important to the Republicans on 1/20/25.
Trump can’t fire Bessent, so I’m not sure what’s going to happen when he hears these numbers he doesn’t like.
