US President-elect Trump calls for abolishing the debt ceiling and will lead the charge

U.S. President-elect Trump said Congress should remove the debt ceiling. A day earlier, Trump publicly opposed the agreement reached by lawmakers to fund the government before the government shutdown. In a telephone interview with NBC News, Trump said that completely lifting the debt ceiling would be "the smartest thing Congress can do." I would fully support it. "The Democrats say they want to get rid of it. If they want to get rid of it, I will lead the charge." Trump said that the debt ceiling is a meaningless concept and no one knows exactly what will happen if the debt ceiling is breached one day, whether it will be a disaster or meaningless. No one should want to know the answer. "It doesn't make any sense except psychologically," he said. (Jin Shi)
