Funniest line in the article:

“Congressional Republicans have sought to move the government in the other direction, proposing budgets to balance the budget within 10 years and begin reducing the federal debt.”

"This is the time to borrow," the Republican candidate said in an interview on CNBC Thursday morning. "Normally, you would say you want to reduce your debt, and I would like to reduce debt too," Trump said, before explaining that "the problem is you have a military problem, you have an infrastructure problem — a tremendous infrastructure problem, and you have other problems. And also, the asset is your rates are so low."

Well that is the democrat position. When interest rates do rise the interest on the debt alone will swallow up the budget.

.......well, I will still vote for Trump even though a balanced budget and paying down the debt is something that if Trump doesn’t get done only total collapse will.

I take this as, We need to fix the military NOW and we need new roads and airports to support the rebuilding of our manufacturing and country. He often comments on the condition of our airports, highways etc compared to other countries. I really don't think he's planning on building turtle tunnels or studying gay monkees, indonesian condom use etc like the dems do.
