The data presented in the OP speaks for itself. You haven't addressed it and attacking me won't change it.

I'm quite surprised - this is good news...how long since we have had a month where the debt decreased? During Bill Clinton's presidency?
I don't think it ever decreased under Clinton, I would suggest the reason for these figures is some kind of accounting anomaly.

And what it says is "Hey, I'm here with NO source being mentioned or just HOW all these mystical numbers were determined. And then there's the FACT that nothing is mentioned that proves who/what is responsible even IF these numbers are substantiated with facts, which at this point they are not."

It's simple, the FACT is the cited article as presented proves absolutely nothing.

Those numbers come from the Treasury Site...
https://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/de...0&endYear=2017

You can select the dates to create a report.

The first chart shows the debt from 2/1/2016 to 2/23/2017, and in it you can see that the debt RISES and FALLS weekly, but the general trend is UP. Trump's actions have very little to nothing to do with it thus far, this is just the continuing trend.

In fact, if you look at the second chart - which only shows this year, you can see that that little dip the debt took is almost gone already and is trending upward.

Stop listening to bullsitters who are trying to claim that tRump has done anything positive in the economy - it is all fake news folks.
https://www.treasurydirect.gov/NP/de...0&endYear=2017

2/16/16 - $19,926,581,166,878.36
2/17/16 - $19,932,504,874,101.46

So in one day, Trump increased the National Debt $6 billion dollars.

Just how much did that trip to Mar-a-Lago cost?

Just how much did that last trip to Mar-a-Lago cost?

Yet another ridiculous thread.

Perhaps this all marks Donny's entry into the press agencty business, along with UPI, AP, Reuters et al, we'll now have AFI, AlternativeFactsInternational.

I saw where Alex Jones is hoping to get White House Press credentials for InfoWars.

Sad commentary on our times that this is even a remote possibility.

They were one of the very few news organizations to predict that Hillary was going to lose. This speaks for itself.

Yes, I directly addressed the data.

You are "attacked" because you have a nasty habit of finding articles that you purport to mean one thing (thread titles), when they actually mean something else. You are so biased and wrong in almost everything you post - then you claim to be Mr. Innocent.

Normally I keep you on ignore because I expect whatever you present to be BS. This time I was curious to see what you were "on about" and almost regret reading what you presented. I guess I will go back to ignoring your posts - they are meaningless in most contexts, but especially because they never seem to match your claims.
