GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump offered his personal definition of conservatism on Sunday amid criticism he is not a true Republican.
“Well, for me, conservatism as it pertains to our country is fiscal,” Trump told host Chuck Todd on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“We have to be strong and secure and get rid of our debt,” he said. “The military has to be powerful and not necessarily used, but very powerful.”
“I want people to be taken care of from a healthcare standpoint,” Trump added. “I want Social Security without cuts. And to me, conservative means a strong county with very little debt.”
Looks like The Donald can't add, or else he has a plan for the US to become a permanent net exporter.

Or we get him to mint the coin. Perhaps I am overoptimistic. :)
If any of the GOP win in 2016 and try extreme austerity it will make things pretty damn difficult for the eurozone. ;)

The US is the only bright spot in the world economy. There is a recovery and the US is providing the fiscal deficit to support the trade deficit that is supporting exporting nations.
Should that reverse, the likely outcome is a global contraction.
