Donald Trump is seemingly unconcerned about the amount of debt his administration has racked up with massive tax cuts and new spending programs — leaving what one columnist calls a “nightmare” for the next president.
Writing for the Daily Beast, Matt Lewis noted that Trump’s spending has increased tremendously despite his past promises to bring down the national debt. Lewis seized on a new report from White House sources that Trump has dismissed fears of the quickly growing debt but saying, “Yeah, but I won’t be here.”
Lewis, who called Trump’s attitude “the antithesis of MAGA,” couldn’t imagine a scenario where another president would be so cavalier about an impending crisis.
