Will Trump really put us $5 trillion more in debt? In terms

It's commonly agreed that he won't build the wall but randomly deport mexicans and whoever else he pleases

other than that, since he fell for the low taxes and consumer economy meme, he may increase overall debt

also americans will find validity in their racism and all the CS and CEO pajeets will go back to India, american companies won't be able to work without undercut salaries

He won't

I'm sure your 8th iPhone this year and your 20th holiday to Thailand will help america get out of debt very soon

I haven't the slightest clue. I didn't think Obama would could close to doubling it and I was wrong. Don't rely on my advice.

Sovereign debt isn't a bad thing. America is a massive fucking bank, and barring every other nation undergoing a geopolitical bank run, increasing how leveraged we are doesn't put us in any real danger.

>Lowering taxes on the middle class and lower class by 3-5%
>Taxing outsourcers 35% when selling within the US
Yeah those darn hedge fund managers are the only ones behind Trump's policies.

Face it, politicians on both sides are so bad that the average worker is better represented and better supported by a multi-billionaire Reality TV Star.

I want a televised event whenever he fires government employees.

It will be like the Oscars but instead of stroking the ego of all of the participants they are shitting themselves in anticipation of the next cut.

Public debt level shouldn't be seen as a policy target but as a residual of fiscal & monetary policy. It's not analogous to private debt, and we have actual debt crises (see household debts) looming that are only made worse by people arguing for smaller deficits etc.

National debt is national saving.

The long and short of it is American debt doesn't matter because America has the guns, bombs and soldiers willing to die for it. Every country that holds American debt (including China) does so because it's confident that even if a global clusterfuck did challenge the existing system, American military dominance would play a more significant role than how many zeroes its national debt has.

t. not an economist, but really this is obvious to anyone who has the slightest understanding of the international political economy. It's all about military force.
