Donald Trump pulls no punches in this interview. He blasts the debt ceiling deal as a sick joke on the American public. He points out that this deal does nothing to begin to balance the budget or paying off our debt. Trump also called Obama incompetent as president, but a master of winning elections.

The apparent deal to extend the debt ceiling is “fantastic” for President Barack Obama but a “joke” for the rest of the country, real estate magnate Donald Trump said.

Speaking as Washington politicians move closer to approving a deal that would give the US another $2.1 trillion in borrowing authority, the colorful businessman and TV personality said the nation is tinkering while losing even more ground to China.

“Eventually you have to balance the budget. This is a long way from balancing the budget,” he said. “This is just a joke. This is a down payment at most.”blockquote>

I wish more Republicans spoke like Donald Trump. He has no qualms calling Obama a failure or in this cae incompetant. The GOP elites acts as if Obama is a devine being, who can’t be criticize. With a bad economy Obama should be an easy target. Luckily for him, he has the GOP as his oppoenets.
