President Trump speaks after shooter apprehended at the journalist dinner in DC

[Wrangler]

The debt has been my singular political issue since high school. No one from either party wants to look at this.

BTW, since high school, I learned there is an even biggest problem, which is called UNFUNDED LIABILITIES. It is the sum of all future spending not covered by expected future revenue. This number is about $127T, whereas the debt is "only" $39T. So, unfunded liabilities is about 3x bigger than the debt.

We could eliminate unfunded liabilities if we had the political will to do so, such as eliminate social security, medicare, pensions, and of course, dramatic reductions in military spending. Interest on the debt is now the 4th biggest line item in the budget and is expected to soon surpass military spending.

From your own source, "We’ve got to get rid of the $19 trillion in debt. ... Well, I would say over a period of eight years. And I’ll tell you why.” Saying "we got to do something" is not a promise to do it.

Another TDS invokes a Strawman designed to fail Trump. Pathetic.

"During his 2016 campaign and subsequent presidency, Donald Trump promised to eliminate the national debt within eight years. However, during his 2017–2021 term, the national debt increased by $7.8 trillion"

Since he started his second term?

"As of early May 2026, the gross national debt has increased by approximately $2.7 trillion to $2.8 trillion since Donald Trump began his second term on January 20, 2025"

Stop drinking the kool-aid. Trump isn't living up to his campaign promises

Since highschool?
I never got to go to highschool.
Hey, do you ever look at the U.S. Debt Clock?

Can you explain to me what the numbers in the GOLD boxes mean?
The page is so big you have to scroll sideways and up and down. LOL
Specially the ones at the BOTTOM.

Thank You

And, have you ever opened the "Secret Window" on the upper right hand corner?

I have, but I'm not an economics geek, so a lot of it is over my head.

Hugs again

Repeating the lie doesn’t make it true. He didn’t promise such a thing nor is it the President who decides such things.

Yes, 4 decades ago.

Yes.

I’ll explain in a PM.

He did promise it. I heard him with my own ears. It's one of the reasons I voted for him.

You said 8 years right?
2017 - 2020. it's really 2020 because Biden became President January 21 2021.
So 17, 18 19, 20. That equals how many? 4. Say it with me, 4.

And then for the next 4 years under Biden:

Joe Biden added approximately $8.45 trillion during his term (2021–2025), a 30.5% increase. Key drivers included the American Rescue Plan ($1.9 trillion), Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, Inflation Reduction Act, and continued elevated federal spending following the pandemic.

So now we are in the 2nd part of that 8 year campaign promise.

Have you even taken a moment to follow the Executive orders or the Bills congress has been passing this last year?
Probably not.
Most don't.
Anywhoooo...

Let's see what happens. We have 2 years to go.
Anything can happen in 2 years.
Anything.

From the ministry of Truth :

The president also said Friday that he considers it “treasonous” for people to say that his country is not “winning” the war with Iran.

Bye bye free speech.

This is what dictators do ... it's coming. He'll get a third term, too. He already told "his people" that they won't have to vote because "it's fixed."

I am afraid so too

He is ruining your beautiful country, once the hope of the world.

It always starts with words, allowing no dissent is one of the early symptoms.

Yalls… would be the people on this forum…

The dialogue would be what an individual says for himself.

The Crap, is someone on this forum, “enamored with some, gobbledegook string of words, that’s SOME unknown person, thinks those string of Words mean “anti-Christ”…. And you sit on the side/line Using those words you can not define…
But Repeatedly to ad-nauseam Attach, Pin on, Accuse, anyone on this forum (and whatever group) Not in Agreement with your tactics … of accusing people to be anti/Christ.

I know my Standing IN Christ and Why it is Secure, and Have expressly Shared MT testimony With this Forum.

I don’t care about your using an others hokey made up words, your inability to Define such words, Your excessive Finger pointing and false accusing…

That is ALL reflective OF your works that Does Not Glorify God, and leads you to forfeiting rewards you could have gained for upstanding works.

Stop trying to Tell ME what I Think, I Believe, the Path I Walk, and what Applies to Me…


I am quite capable of speaking for myself…

Bless you. As a Christian American, I hate the grief he's causing across the whole world.

Let’s talk about ICE.

The agency has just awarded a new contract to MVM, Inc., a private contractor already being sued over its alleged role in Trump’s first-term family separation policy.

The complaint, MVM wasn’t just moving paperwork.

It was physically transporting separated children, misleading them about where they were going, and helping operate a system that effectively erased families in practice.

A federal judge has allowed core claims to proceed, including allegations tied to enforced disappearance and child abduction.

Now this same company has been rewarded again and hired to conduct “wellness checks” on undocumented children.

Nothing quite says child welfare like sending in the contractor accused of helping disappear children the first time.
========================================================================

The crooked Trump government calls it policy.
Nazi like ICE calls it safety.
The money hungry contractor calls it a contract.
=======================================================================

But at some point, “just doing your job” stops being a defence and starts becoming the evidence.


Enjoy your sunday.

I am really impressed by this guy's T-shirt.
Found this image on the internet.
I guess he is trying to win souls for the Lord.
I think he might be on this forum?

There is no relevant reason to separate children from families other than to traffic them. Why could they not just process them out of the country as a whole unit?? Makes ZERO sense whatsoever. I know all too well the government's participation in trafficking. Not to mention, Trump's personal aircraft needed a complete overhaul in 2020/2021 ....witnesses say it smelled of human excrement.

I have no problem with the statement on his shirt ....but why wear it?? I don't think he's trying to win souls for the Lord. IMO, "unwoke" and "MAGA" cannot be in the same space. Neither can "Christian" and "MAGA."

Anything to gain access to children.
