The Trump administration seems to be wasting no time getting its financials in order. Just a few weeks into Donald Trump’s term, Trump tweeted that the debt had been lowered by $60 billion. Reports are also circulating that Trump’s first budget will oversee the largest reduction of the federal workforce since WWII.
So we know how Trump plans to save money. But how will he make it?
He certainly doesn’t seem to be willing to raise taxes very much. While he has suggested that he might be okay with a small tax increase on the rich, most of the government’s extra income seems contingent on a growing economy, not higher tax rates.
But that’s not their only plan.
The Trump Administration also seems to be eyeing unpaid debts held by foreign governments — some going back half a century.

What a refreshing change. Oblunder would have thrown money at the problem in hopes that it would go away. Then he’d go and play some golf
Bought dam time we start getting our money back from these countries!!!
It’s about time. It’s payback!
About damned time!
OK., maybe not ok, to collect on this debt…
I do not agree with this. We destroyed enough property over there in trying to defend it that I think it cancels out.
Also, since we caused so much chaos in the way we handled things, the article itself says we gave the people no choice but to go to Khmer Rouge control. That’s terrible.
WE DON’T HAVE THE TIME TO WASTE,EVERYONE THAT OWES THE U S MONEY NEED TO START PAYING UP.
Harry Conkle show proof of your statement. All during the campaign the msm said Trump didn’t pay the little contractors and they were suing for their money. Trump paid in full the bid agreement on the contracts. What he didn’t pay for was the unapproved over runs . When the msm found out the truth instead of reporting the truth they just stopped talking about it. And the socialist liberal progressive Democrats and following continue to use the f**e news as talking points. Informed researchers know the truth and laugh at the ignorance of the liberal media and their following. As for Russia tell us your sources and support your claims with facts. You liberals saying it over and over don’t make it true. I’ll wait.
