Haha yes, he’s definitely 100% going to put any money people Venmo to whatever account they’ve made towards “paying of the national debt” (pronounced /ɛmˈbɛzlm(ə)nt/)

Conservatives immediately turned into beggars lmao
"Time for the liberals who wanted higher taxes to pay up"
Conservatives are dumb freeloaders.

He's asking people to pay off the national debt that his Big Bogus Bill is increasing by 3.4 trillion dollars?!
If every man, woman, and child paid $10,000 they would only cover the cost of his bill. TEN THOUSAND dollars each and it would make up for the bill passed this year.
Then you've got the already existing $29 trillion in debt already owed. Get your fuckin wallets out everyone. Trump's grifting again(still).
-
It's his personal Venmo, he'll make sure the money gets to the right place, you can trust him.

Steve Bannon was pardoned for fraud for pocketing the "donate to build the wall" stuff. Wouldn't be surprised if this all just goes to Trump Jr's cocaine fund.
It will be funny to see if somebody does the "if you care about the national debt so much, why not pay it yourself?" line.

Sooo... Voluntary extra taxes? You know, you could just tax the mega wealthy. Although something tells me some of this would go to them anyway with how easily they seem to throw that shit around.
I shouldn't be mad since it's mostly going to be people that are incredibly stupid that are going to do this, but I would prefer those said people were at least buying stuff that'll put the money back into the economy instead of having it disappear into the ether. I'm not an economist, but i bet that even if every average American that is middle class or below put in all their money it still wouldn't even put a dent in it.

I saw elsewhere that if every man, woman, and child in America paid in $12.1k, we could eliminate the $4T Trump just added to the debt.

Yet another distraction from Trump being a serial child molester.
-
A.You pay B. You have big inflation so the sum of that money is insignificant
No one will be happy with those options. I believe option B will be chosen.
-
Why doesn't he ask his billionaire friends?
-
Bet that money doesn't go towards the national debt

They're to fund the ICE concentration camps to lock you up in.

Yeah bro I'll just venmo you five trillion dollars no biggie
-
Can you just cover all 37 trillion for us? Thanks

The debt is more than $100k per person. The median net worth is $192k. People would have to sell large parts of what they own to make any significant dent in that number during his administration.
-
That's embarrassing. Not that that's new lately. But yeah.
-
Great, an invitation to piss into a hurricane.
-
How much you wanna bet this just goes to his personal account lol
-
Are donations into that pot at least tax deductable?
-
Don't forget to tip the tax man
-
Can they reduce my national debt instead?
-
-
It’s a trickle fetish.
-
You first.
-
And how much of Trumps wealth in % has been contributed?

Next up: Klarna

Boy, he sounds just like my ex-girlfriend.

edit: Heh...
We've recovered your text Voyager says.
Submit I say

What I meant to say, is that's an interesting way to drain the swamp.
that other ramble was meant to go on a different post entirely

Sir, this is a Wendy's.

I'll skip the dozen obvious reasons why this is comically stupid, but imagine if this strategy did some how significantly reduce the debt - they would just pass another bill giving more tax breaks to billionaires.
Contributing to this is just like buying something from amazon without receiving the something.
