Debt Watch

Today, the national debt is $39.02 trillion.

When Trump took office in Jan of 25, it was $36.22 trillion.

That’s an increase of almost $3 trillion in fourteen months.

During his first term, he added $7.8 trillion to the debt. He’s well positioned to beat his own record.

There’s a reason our “business man” President had six bankruptcies.
