“You can't pay amortization when he's raising interest rates, OK?”
When the Fed raises the Fed funds rate, it results in the commercial banks raising their prime lending rates. It has almost no impact on long term government debt rates as seen by the current ten-year bond rate being considerably LOWER than the overnight Fed funds rate.

No he was using it in reference to paying the interest in the federal debt. And yes that’s the chief argument against what Trump is advocating for, but no one has attempted this so no one knows exactly for sure what is possible. In Trump I trust.
