Trump and the GOP Congress now own the federal debt.
To be fair, Trump never actually promised to lower the debt. He did make claims here and there his "terrific" plans would lower the debt, yes. But he never made a big show of promising to actually lower the debt.
He constantly criticized Obama for raising the debt, but he never made anywhere near as much noise about how he was going to lower it.
And then, of course, there's this:
Donald Trump's Plans Would Add $5.3 Trillion to the National Debt
Donald Trump Would Boost Debt More Than Hillary Clinton, Report Says
Trump would beat Clinton by trillions when it comes to driving up debt
Trump plans would increase debt 26 TIMES more than Clinton's: Study
Donald Trump’s tax plan could land America $10 trillion deeper in debt
The Republican Party does not get to say they didn't promise to lower the debt, though. They have bitched and bitched and bitched and bitched about the debt.
Now they and Trump own the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives, and will soon own the Supreme Court.
Just like January 2001 to January 2007.
And what did the GOP do then? They exploded the debt, and created a trillion dollar government medical entitlement program which they did not pay for.
So don't get your hopes up, kids. Republicans are just as big spenders as the Democrats, as we are all about to be reminded.
Democrats: Tax and spend.
Republicans: Borrow and spend.
Trump owns it now. We blamed Obama for the debt. Turnabout is fair play.
