Not only typical of this narcissist to not care about the burdens the future will face, but also typical of his generation. Spend all you can and live it up now. Don't bother thinking about the legacy you're living to your children.
Our whole society is living on borrowed time, energy and resources that will not be regenerated, and our government is OK with that.
The friction came to a head in early 2017 when senior officials offered Trump charts and graphics laying out the numbers and showing a “hockey stick” spike in the national debt in the not-too-distant future. In response, Trump noted that the data suggested the debt would reach a critical mass only after his possible second term in office.
“Yeah, but I won’t be here,” the president bluntly said, according to a source who was in the room when Trump made this comment during discussions on the debt.
