A long ago he said that a large one-time tax on people who had more than $10 million would erase the national debt.

I think he has since seen the error of his ways (i.e. it would suck capital out of the American economy and in doing so drive the stock market down precipitously and kill many businesses).

I require a public denial and repudiation of a wealth tax.

Depending on when he said it, it might have been true at that time. Certainly if he said it before 2006, before Obama and also Bush raised the national debt by 15 trillion dollars. 4 trillion might have done it back then.
