Trump’s Policies Flop as U.S. Debt Hits a Record $37 Trillion

President Donald Trump’s policies are facing renewed scrutiny as the United States’ national debt soars to a record $37 trillion.

The surge in U.S. debt is raising concern among financial and policy experts, with annual interest payments nearing $1 trillion.

This amount threatens to strain the federal budget and undermine essential government operations.

According to Congress’s nonpartisan budget office, on June 17, 2025, the broad domestic policy package recently passed by House Republicans is projected to add $2.8 trillion to the U.S. deficit over the next decade, once economic impacts are considered.

The U.S. government’s debt has surpassed the nation’s total annual economic output.

With annual deficits now hovering around $2 trillion, the national debt is accelerating, driven by increasing government spending and slow revenue growth.

At the same time, the most pressing concern is the soaring interest burden that nearly 25% of all federal tax revenue is now consumed by debt payments, leaving less room to fund critical programs like Social Security, Medicare, national defence, and infrastructure that millions of Americans could rely on.

Economists Warnings

The Congressional Budget Office warns that without significant fiscal reforms, the debt could climb to 156% of GDP by 2055.

Moreover, Senate Republicans are facing growing warnings from economists that their flagship legislation would add trillions to the national deficit.

 “We do have more debt now than we had before, for sure, but I think they grossly underestimate the economic benefits,” Senator Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) said as of the latest CBO report.

Bitcoin’s Value Soars

While U.S. national debt has soared past $37 trillion amid heightened government spending and stimulus efforts, Bitcoin (BTC) has steadily transitioned from a small digital innovation to a globally recognised financial asset.

In addition, for the year 2025, the approximate US national debt is projected to be $36.2 trillion. During the same period, the Bitcoin price is estimated to range between $93,000 and $111,970.

Additionally, Bitcoin secured backing from major institutional players like BlackRock, Fidelity, Metaplanet, Strategy, and Tesla.

The approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in January 2024 further opened the door for mainstream investors, making it more accessible through traditional financial markets.
