I think if Harvard retroactively accepts the president to the Graduating class of 1965 and walks back the rejection letter he received, this all goes away.

Best case he turns off Apr 2nd tariffs Monday. Leaves the 10pct tariffs (not great, but realistic). Elon leaves Doge, which decides to stagger the cuts over 3 yrs, accounting for local impact.
That slows the economy, reducing interest rates, reducing payments on debt to affordable levels.
Hi Mark,

Have you, and if not, will you give us the best case scenario?

For the rest of my life, I will never understand how a country full of people busting their asses, working paycheck to paycheck, allow the fucking richest guy on Earth to call them "parasites" while calling the Social Security we contributed to our entire lives "a Ponzi scheme."

Un-fucking-real.

Why would Trump want to eliminate the debt ceiling during his entire presidency when he promised to cut the total budget by 33% and balance the budget?
