So far Trump has America 2 trillion in debt in a year, so can he keep his campaign promise to eliminate the National Debt in 8 years?

There is no way that can be done and Trump knows this. The national debt is now either 21 or 22 trillion dollars and there is interest which keeps on accumulating on this debt. The so-called tax reform bill reduced government revenues and the tariff wars have also reduced revenue coming into the government coffers. The only way the debt can be reduced is to cut expenses by eliminating and/or cutting back government programmes and applying that money to the debt. If the lenders decided to call in their loans to the US the country would be bankrupt which would make it more difficult for the US to secure loans.

He could but it is very unlikely with the tax an spend liberals gaining some strength.

most of the "national debt' is stashed away in state banks in a hundred smaller countries & used to give THEIR currency world-wide buying power .....................................
