The U.S. national debt is now larger than the economy as a whole, hitting levels not seen since the aftermath of World War II, new data has revealed. Figures released by the Bureau of Economic Analysis Thursday place the total debt held by the American public at $31.27 trillion as of March 31. Meanwhile, the country’s nominal gross domestic product was estimated at $31.22 trillion, meaning the national debt as a percentage of GDP stands at 100.2 percent, putting it on course to challenge the historic 106 percent recorded in 1946 during demobilization. The debt stood at 99.5 percent of GDP at the end of the 2025 fiscal year in September, revealing how quickly it has climbed.
I am certain that we can find other places to start wars as well
I’m not entirely certain that the administration will have the juice to start shit with Cuba let alone Greenland after they flubbed Iran so bad.
This Iran thing is never going to end by the way. Even when it ends it won’t end, Israel will reach across the border for whatever pretexts for domestic political reasons. This is a Forever War.
But the president wants to start shit with Greenland for the express purposes of pulling us out of NATO, and that is why he is trying to increase the military budget to 1.5 trillion, to make up for all the arms sales they would lose pulling out of NATO.
It really is like that.
