Trump: Debt Ceiling Should Be Completely Eliminated to Avoid Economic Disaster
On June 5th, President Trump's latest social media update: "I am extremely delighted to make the announcement that, after a considerable number of years, I have successfully reached an agreement with Democratic Senator Warren on a particular matter: the debt ceiling should be entirely abolished in order to avert an economic catastrophe. It is extremely perilous to leave it in the hands of politicians - even though this might have a calamitous impact on our nation (and indirectly on the world), certain politicians still intend to utilize the debt ceiling for political gain."
Regarding Senator Warren's second statement regarding $4 trillion, I also hold a great fondness for it. However, this must be achieved in the shortest possible time. Let's have the Republicans and Democrats collaborate together to make this a reality!"
