flag Trump pledges economic growth to tackle $37.4 trillion debt, but Dalio warns rising debt risks crisis.

flag President Donald Trump claims the U.S. can overcome its $37.4 trillion debt through strong economic growth, citing a 3.8% Q2 2025 GDP rise and proposing tax cuts, tariffs, and up to $2,000 in direct payments. flag He expects tariff revenues of $300 billion annually to support growth and fiscal gains. flag However, economist Ray Dalio warns that rising debt—projected to reach 118% of GDP by 2035—poses serious risks if interest costs outpace income growth. flag Drawing from historical debt cycles, Dalio cautions that prosperity can mask unsustainable borrowing, increasing the likelihood of a future crisis when growth slows.
