Unfortunately we know that which ever party gets in..they are going to turn on the money printer. 
But I think Trump will do it better by implementing BTC mining and lax legislation so we can REALLY start building here.
That debt will never get paid off. 
We have become a consumer society and its very dangerous. 
We need to bring back industry here and stop outsourcing so much! 
Start building quality products made in the USA again and sell to the rest of the world. Instead of buying some crappy cheaply made product that breaks fast and easy and you pay for 20x in your life instead of once.
This whole set up is wrong.
If we keep doing things this same way then we deserve to fail.

I think you under-estimate how much fat can be cut by MUSK.
Trump also wanted to issue 100 year bonds when rates were at 3%.  The democrats made up nonsense about how horrible an idea that was.  In hindsight it would have been one of the best moves in the history of any nation.  Now we have to figure out how to roll over 10 trillion in debt over the coming year.  China is net selling.  Printing our way out is now the only option the democrats left us.  Trump had the solution.  When China was a net buyer.

It’s wild to think how different our financial landscape could be with some past decisions.
