most economists would consider Trump's proposal impossible, as it could require slashing the annual federal budget by more than half.

Why is that impossible? It sounds like music to my ears! We'd get by just fine on half the current budget.

Imagine what that would do to interest rates of future bonds.

We could sell the good old 30 year bond again with low, low interest rates.

Each phase of sales would improve our nation’s real credit rating. In the end, we would have a huge rating and little or no debt.
