But I can tell you that on the trajectory we were on it was 100% going to fail.
Federal government spending grew more over Trump's first term than it did over Obama's two terms. The federal government didn't shrink on any appreciable way when he had the reigns the first time around. He greatly contributed to this monster you speak of. How did he suddenly become the one to solve the problem he helped create?
...you do remember what happened to post-Weimar Germany right?
