Get the Scrap Heap Ready. Another Trump Promise is on the Way.
Budget chief: Trump's promise to eliminate debt was 'hyperbole'
The White House's budget chief says President Trump’s campaign promise to eliminate the national debt was “hyperbole.”
Asked Wednesday by CNBC’s John Harwood asked about Trump’s “goal of eliminating the debt” by the end of his second term, Office of Management and Budget director Mick Mulvaney said it was likely impossible.
“It’s fairly safe to assume that was hyperbole,” he responded. “I’m not going to be able to pay off $20 trillion worth of debt in four years. I’d be being dishonest with you if I said I could.”
"The reason the president doesn’t want to change some of them mandatory spending is because the public’s not ready for it yet. They’re ready for economic growth.”
Trump insisted last year to The Washington Post that he would be able to get rid of the national debt “over a period of eight years.”
We live in a time in which decent and otherwise sensible people are surrendering too easily to the hectoring of morons or extremists.

Indeed. I have never seen so many lies from an administration.
Nothing in the history of the United States comes close.
It really is quite appalling.

Trump adviser: US unlikely to label China a 'currency manipulator'
The Trump administration is unlikely to label China a "currency manipulator," breaking one of the president's campaign promises, according to a top outside economic adviser.
“I would doubt that would happen,” Stephen Schwarzman, the chairman of Blackstone Group and chair of a presidential advisory board of top business leaders, told Bloomberg Television on Tuesday.
