> I don't quite understand the motive. I mean the motive of the masses who cheer this on. Is it just to own the libs?
You're surely being obtuse. I'm a progressive independent and even I understand why they are doing it, even if I'm not convinced this is the correct way to do it.
This is why they are doing it: https://www.usdebtclock.org/
It's just their idea of austerity.
I think you're the one who's being obtuse. He said the movtive of the masses, not the Trump administration. The masses know nothing of the US national debt. They just hate liberals, feel that the liberals have had power over them for the last 4 years, and want their revenge. This is the pendulum swinging the other way.
