“Let’s run the country like a business!” Also, “let’s cut our revenue by the most ever seen in history”.
Our debt is going up! (surprised Pikachu face)
This is the liberals fault!
No business owner would voluntary cut their revenue. They’re not businessmen, they’re con artists turned tyrants.
Make America Grim Again
Seriously?
What idiot thought it would take a trillion years for the US to rack up $37 in debt?
i thought we were going to doge that bullet
The secret is Trump will debase our currency to the point where a hotdog stand charges a million dollars for a can of soda. Then our debt will be relatively meaningless and easy to pay off.
I really hate that so much in US politics right now reminds me of 1930’s Germany
“300 buys you a sandwich.”
Quite possibly a view into our future. Let’s hope the end of Nick Offerman’s performance is prescient.
Then our debt will be relatively meaningless and easy to pay off.
Not that we would.
Pun is warranted and acceptable. Thank you
What happens when someone uses an entire country as collateral while stuffing their own pockets. Watch it happen, now!
Solution: sacrifice the richest people until their wealth adds up to $37 trillion and maybe a few more rich people just for extra security
The solution is to stop trading oil in USD then nobody will want it anymore
Classic republicans spending way too much. To them conservative = spend and waste more.
There’s a world in which the US is carrying $37T, everyone lives in a spacious public condo, rides the UltraMax train around town to their 30 hour/week jobs or publicly financed doctor’s appointments or state financed university classes or luxury public park and spa.
And I think that would be money well spent.
Shame we don’t live in that country
“Sure, basically all available economic data suggests that society would become far more productive and stable if the neediest people were given enough stability to develop into contributing members of society, but if I don’t see people I don’t like suffering terribly then I will feel there is no right and wrong in the world and I might as well go have sex with a child like we all secretly want to.” - social conservatives (actually)
Trump will be the first president under which a sovereign default will occur
At the rate the USD is declining against other currencies, I’d say it’s going to happen before the midterm. His only hope for prolonging this is to replace Jerome Powell and bandaid it until it’s someone else’s problem. Or start a war.
US debt reaches $37, a trillion years before expected. FIFY
This is how I first read the headline, too. It took a double-take to read it correctly.
“Conservative” fiscal “responsibility”
WE’RE NUMBER ONE! (…in debt).
USA UsA usaUAS … were the greatest!
I still waiting for the damn “trickle down economics“ that Reagan PROMISED!
If America paid attention to its own history Reagan would be remembered as the worst president
Second worst now, imo
An America that learns from Reagan would never have elected Trump
Yes, no argument here. I know Reagan holds a lot of responsibility for the prep, but i think trump is still worse
Maybe third, Jackson was really fucking bad
There is really a lot of competition for that spot.
That’s what a conman as leader of your country will get you. Fired half the government workforce, still spent more money than the last guy and he’s only been in office for 6 months. It only goes down from here folks, hope you enjoyed the ride. This is your last stop.

Those are just fake numbers. USA is not in debt, in fact it has a surplus of 9000 quintilions. Trump probably.
It’s OK. I heard after the prescription price reduction, he’s looking to lower the national debt by at least 1500% also.
Trump has definitely never used the word “quintillion”.
Well, things like that happen when you throw money at billionaires instead of collecting taxes from them.
How unexpected!
Who could’ve seen it coming?!
/s juuuust in case some dummy out there doesn’t get it
