11. He's. Going. To. Borrow. One. Trillion. Dollars.
One Trillion Dollars. And We have to pay it back.

AND he's going to wreck Social Security in the process.

One Trillion Dollars (I don't know why, but it wants to be capitalized) is a mind-boggling amount of money. And he's going to fucking BORROW it and lay it on the fucking stock market or the bond market, right!? CRAP! This country is getting Arbusto-ed!
