19.9 trillion it s gone up $2 trillion over the past two years. it s now almost $22 trillion this national debt which will be a burden on our children and grandchildren for a long time to come servicing that debt with interest. i m old enough to remember when the republican party was the party that was committed to bringing this down. and this explosion of the debt has happened under a republican president, the debt, donald trump. and so i think that number is astonishing to look at. it speaks how far the republican party has moved. remember it was republicans that controlled washington for the last two years when this number exploded. fiscal restraint. whatever happened to fiscal restraint. tax cuts. tax cuts. the tax cut is a large part of this. and one of the president s economic advisers was asked today your concerned about this and he said yes. the president has asked 5%
meeting and feeling like there had been a productive meeting and feeling like the president was wheels up to an important international summit the canadian prime minister took to the media to condemn president. so i think there was frustration expressed there. yeah. marc short chalking up peter navarro s special place in hell comment to frustration. so discourage to hear someone speaking that way. joining us now, pulitzer prize winning columnist and political analyst eugene robinson. he s ought with a column entitled the compass gop credo was a sham all along and he writes in part trump has completely overturn what once was hallowed republican on fre trade. he has blithely ignored what used to be gop holy writ about fiscal restraint. he mocks the party s traditional
