U.S. Debt and Deficit Concerns Grow Amid Trump’s Tax Policies

The U.S. is facing escalating concerns over its national debt and deficits, exacerbated by former President Donald Trump's tax policies. A recent Congressional Budget Office (CBO) report forecasts rising deficits over the next 30 years, projecting a slowdown in economic growth. The CBO's analysis indicates that the fiscal outlook could worsen if current tax policies, including those implemented under Trump's administration, remain unchanged.

The Financial Times highlights how Trump's tax cuts have contributed to the ballooning national debt, now exceeding $34 trillion. The New York Times reports that these policies have led to increased borrowing, with interest payments on the debt becoming a significant strain on the federal budget. Reuters notes the CBO's warning that without policy adjustments, the U.S. could face severe economic repercussions.

As the nation grapples with these fiscal challenges, policymakers are under pressure to address the sustainability of the U.S. economy. The debate over tax policy and its impact on the national debt is likely to intensify, especially as the 2024 presidential election approaches.
