In a tweet on November 27, 2019, Massie highlighted D.C’s fiscal negligence over multiple decades.
He tweeted, “The national debt has been doubling every 10 years: ‘89 $2.9T ‘99 $5.7T ‘09 $11.9T ‘19 $23T At this rate, in about 20 yrs, the debt will be about $100 trillion. In the absence of something cataclysmic, many will be as numb to $100 T as they are to $23 T. This can’t end well.”
