“We might as well do it now because you’ll do it later,” Trump told Kailin Collins in the Town Hall last night in answer to defaulting on the debt.
From last night’s CNN Town Hall
COLLINS: “So just to be clear, Mr. President, you think the U.S. should default if the White House does not agree to the spending cuts Republicans are demanding?”
TRUMP: “We might as well do it now because you’ll do it later. Because we have to save this country. Our country is dying. Our country is being destroyed by stupid people, by very stupid people.”
COLLINS: “You once said that using the debt ceiling as a negotiating wedge just could not happen.”
TRUMP: “Sure, that’s when I was president.”
COLLINS: “So why is it different now that you’re out of office?”
TRUMP: “Because now I’m not president.”
This is Trump’s new “Because you’d be in jail.” LAMO

He has a point about defaulting. We can’t keep spending as we are. Someone has to apply the brakes. We have defaulted before. What do you think?
And what do you think about him calling them stupid? Are they – aside from Biden – stupid?
You can comment on the article after the ads and subscribe to the Daily Newsletter here if you would like a quick view of the articles of the day and any late news:
I don t like calling people who believe the MSM “stupid” because some people I like or love are like that ( such as my 95 old mother )
but it is hard not to call those people ( except my mother ) stupid because in this day and age, it is very easy to find reliable sources of information that explain why what the MSM said is not the entire truth, and such sites ( such as independent sentinel ) often provide evidence such as the original documents or the non edited video, so we know this is the truth, not the edited version of the MSM.
so if someone choses to not search for the truth, they do chose to be stupid ( except my mother…lol!)
One thing is you can’t fault President Trump’s Logic! Trump has been a Master of Bankruptcy and Reorganization. (Note to self: Sell all US Bonds when Trump takes over.)
Collins is a simpleton who does not understand Trump’s remarks on the debt ceiling, nor the context and circumstances. Congressional leaders in his own party lied to him about plans. Trump has advocated spending controls but his own party was going to override his vetoes.
Biden refuses to negotiate spending or the ceiling.
