Personally, I wish it was a lot larger. You know, this storied chamber, chambers include the House has allowed this country to accumulate $40 trillion in debt with no end in sight Over the course of the next 10 years that the total estimate of additional deficits and added debt is $26 trillion. So I personally am glad. I don't care who the President is out of what party, I will generally support that president reducing spending and I'd applaud it. (01:43–01:52)
