He can't wipe out that amount of debt without double digit GDP growth for years. A consumption based economy cannot grow like that.

The US economy doesn't produce that much revenue to fund itself AND pay off all the bonds AND expand the military AND expand health care like he wants to AND hold a progressive tax base at his proposed rates.

Geez - this guy can truly say anything and his supporter just yell “YES”.

It's really amazing.

True... you can’t get a Beluga whale from 0 to 1000 mph in 1.5 seconds without breaking it up. Do we want propulsion or do we want explosion?

But that little nicety taken care of, at least Trump is thinking about some kind of grand plan. To get halfway there in twice the time would be an amazing feat.

Trump's got a massive tax cut plan, and the only thing he commits to cutting is spending is waste fraud and abuse.

Sounds like the GWB plan.

Don't forget all those jobs coming back after he makes all those phone calls. They will boost tax revenue so much it will be balanced in 7 years.
