Trump on Debt: “So? I won’t be here.”

Ladies and gentlemen, meet the new Republican Party. Deficit spending and further debt are no longer a problem - because they can kick the can down the road.

If you’re a fiscal conservative, the GOP is no friend of yours.

Exactly. Be proud Trump supporters. Be very, very proud.

He didn’t have dem support for the tax cuts, but SOMEHOW those got done…!

Party before country. Trump before country.

It’s really a shame. We were at the point where we could have got spending and taxes under control, but instead we’ve exploded the deficit.

The Republicans are no friend to me.

Absolutely. They are a bunch of gutless wonders who will go down in history for their complicity in this dark age of America

Gotta love anonymous sources.

The last defense of an ardent Trump supporter.

Party before country. Trump before country

Party before country, Donald before party.

There’s the heirarchy of loyalty.

what I meant to say actually.

Bill Clinton is the only President in the past 80 years who lowered his annual Budget deficit all eight years he was in office, and both Progs and Conversatives don’t like him.

That’s because bill Clinton was immoral lite. But trump has the full body and flavor of immorality and they love him.

So you counter that by voting in and wholeheartedly supporting someone who cares even less about the debt and massive government expansion?

How very odd and unconservative of you.

Trump on Coming Debt Crisis: ‘I Won’t Be Here’ When It Blows Up

The friction came to a head in early 2017 when senior officials offered Trump charts and graphics laying out the numbers and showing a “hockey stick” spike in the national debt in the not-too-distant future. In response, Trump noted that the data suggested the debt would reach a critical mass only after his possible second term in office.

“Yeah, but I won’t be here,” the president bluntly said, according to a source who was in the room when Trump made this comment during discussions on the debt.

This is the man every Trump loving idiot decided to put in charge. “Screw you, I got mine”: the quintessential Republican philosophy.

I grudgingly applaud Trump for being honest and vocalizing what most of today’s supposed “fiscal conservatives” all agree on anyway.

This is simply Grover Norquist’s plan to starve government put in stark and simple terms as only Trump can do it.

@highroller

You raise taxes to cover the spending, or you lower spending.

Republicans do neither, and there is no reason for democrats to lower spending or raise taxes. Because when they fix your ■■■■■ the republicans will get back in charge and lower taxes again. Let’s just keep going because no one cares anymore.

Baby Boomers light the way!!!

Paul Ryan had that plan… No dems supported it.

To gut Social Security and Medicare to pay for tax cuts and a bloated military?

I can’t imagine why no Democrats signed on for that…

Meh, those who voted for or are supporting Donald Trump are actively opposing fiscal conservatism.

“Like” is not a binary thing.

Cool. That’s a very good thing that happened during Clinton’s presidency. But that’s not why people dislike him.

“So? but I won’t be here.”

^^ every Baby Boomer and GenXer’s attitude for the last 30 years on everything they’ve voted for. We got ours, so ■■■■ our grandchildren, and Orange Man Bad!
