Americans will be finishing up the Biden years by setting a new record... we are in debt more than ever before. Congratulations to progressivism, the Biden/Harris administration, and their supporters.

Lets be real, it's not going to get better instantly. But hopefully these next Trump year or two will help reverse the course by providing opportunities, reducing inflation, and growing the economy. Would be great to see savings climb again for the average American. Economy is in a tight spot, could go either way.

If one hasn't realized the Obama inventors goal is to destroy the dollar, apologize for Americans evil sins, bring her to her knees and bilk her of all she's worth out the back door until she is financially full subjugated to the world order and CBDC

Get one's affairs in order. The gravy train that's ended for most already won't be comin back and now you're saddled with massive home and credit card and student loan debt and not enough salary increase to keep up with the people you voted for's inflation.

Most have nothing g to show for the massive inflation of the last 4 years.

Trump isn't able to stop deficit spending and survive politically.

Other priorities require too much cash.

Counting the weeks down until the adults are back in charge.

In reality neither party has really made a significant effort in decades to reduce the national debt, including the incoming president, as noted during his first term.
Not knocking him, it's almost a total lack of political will by most of the country.

Every politician knows, without a doubt, that voting for legitimate measures to reduce the debt would be political suicide.

Agreed. Republicans spend really no less than D's. They just waste it differently. Being open minded that this is a once in a generation chance to try to do something different.

Yes. Will be fascinating to see it play out. The divide between the haves and have nots has really never been greater. The number of havaalittles is also diminishing at record rate.

Begs the question: Which legislative action/s caused the surpassing of the $32 trillion mark? The $33 trillion mark? The $34 trillion mark? The $35 trillion mark? The $36 trillion mark?

The U.S. government's gross national debt has officially climbed past $37 trillion.

In January 2020, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimated that gross federal debt would not surpass $37 trillion until after fiscal year 2030

Former US Senator Judd Gregg (R-New Hampshire) was extremely clairvoyant in 2010, predicting that shifting demographics, coupled with populism (both left & right-wing), would be a combustible mix and result in unsustainable debt

BREAKING: The US Treasury posted a $345 billion budget deficit in August, the largest monthly deficit of 2025 and the 2nd-worst August on record.

This is up from July’s $291 billion deficit and has only been surpassed by last year’s $380 billion deficit.

Tariffs were pitched as the fix for America’s trade deficit.

Instead…

First 7 months of 2024: –$500 billion deficit.

First 7 months of 2025: –$654 billion deficit.

+31% YoY 🚨 Record high.

This is a Baylor Board. shouldn't it be spelled NOZEtradamus.

.@SpeakerJohnson wants to pass a Continuing Resolution (CR) until the holidays.

This CR would be a copy of the uniparty spending bill under Autopen Biden.

I didn’t vote for those spending priorities when Biden was President and I won’t vote for them now.

The U.S. government's gross national debt has climbed to $37 trillion as a result of increased borrowing from Donald Trump's administration, according to the latest report from the Treasury Department.
The departmental update, issued to track the nation's finances, blamed the milestone on the accelerating pace of borrowing by the federal government, which has seen the debt soar by $1t to its present record high in just nine months.
The debt stood at $34t in January 2024 and $36t in November and has surpassed the $37 t marker far earlier than forecasts made before the Covid-19 pandemic had anticipated.

The Congressional Budget Office's January 2020 projections indicated that the gross federal debt was not likely to hit its present figure until the 2030 fiscal year.
But the debt grew faster than expected because the coming of the pandemic necessitated heavy government borrowing under both Trump and Joe Biden as they fought to stabilize the American economy amid the global slowdown.

That big beautiful bill. Slurp

No, Trump is making money hand over fist. His Tariffs are genius and have us in a surplus, so the debt has to be coming down. We have to be in a better place.

We will end the Trump term with HIGHER debt and spending than when he came in, watch. He will make a fortune, Elon will make a fortune. But, the spending will be higher...

I don't see how you can logically refute a post with information that is from the Congressional Budget Office with information that is pulled out of the air.

Then you reverse your statement by saying the USA will have higher debt under Trump? I do not understand.

The first statement was sarcasm. Sorry, thought it was obvious.

I don't think Trump will cut anything, our total debt load and spending will be higher. He spends worse than Biden. He just focuses on marketing and his rabid supporters will believe anything he says.

This thread took a turn and it's my fault for not being clearer. I *think* this was about individual debt when I did the OP. People owed more because they couldn't afford as much and went into debt under Biden. Bidenomics was a failure for people. Progressives will only make the rich richer and the poor more subservient.

I'm hopeful that trend is reversed by the Trump economy.

I'm also willing to think that national debt may EVENTUALLY trend better under Trump. Of course, I'm less convinced of that, but cautiously hopeful.

I have seen no indication in Trump's past that he will cut total spending, he will cut stuff that does not effect him, his cronies or his family.


Biden was just bad.

I can't remember the last decent budget/debt Presidents we have had.
