More debt with a growing Trump economy is better than less debt with a stagnant non-Trump economy.

A few consideration for people who don8know that the perfect can be the enemy of the good:

1. Ike considered debt to be more important than cutting taxes, and the result was economic stagnation and the election of JFK. JFK ignored the debt and reduced marginal tax rates from the 90s to the 70s, and the economy boomed.

2. If Ronald Reagan had waited for less debt to reduce taxes, the Reagan era boom would have never been.
