Guess America's National debt is too much for impact to be felt.
$12 billion represents around 0.06% of the federal debt. But that doesn't matter actually. Trump didn't managed to cut down the debt, although I expect him to do that later during his term. As of now, the federal debt is still rising.

One would have to ask, exactly what policy/executive action has he signed/enacted that would have been responsible for this? Especially in a month? Cuts to EPA/the endowments/national media haven't taken effect yet, and the only legislation we have seen is a travel ban and increased deportation enforcement.
Also, the debt is an insurmountable snowball that won't be surmounted by any one administration. Especially one with 1/20 of its appointees.

I would wait at least 1 year before start to make economic impact analyzes on someone.
In a month is way too early, can be a simple correlation with other factors.

With the United States of America leaving the United Nations and closing its borders for immigrants the United States will no longer place a huge budget on giving humanitarian and financial aide abroad and within their country. Billions of dollars will be saved if those things will be set aside and Trump has now proven himself as an effective president. I wonder if President Trump can wipe out the trillions of debt by the United States of America then he will become a legend and his accomplishment will be a big uppercut to the face of the opposing party and the media who are always on the move in destroying his political career.

I wish it was true but this is definitely some fake news. You dont have to believe what u hear or see, Its better to research on your own and find the truth for yourselves. The media has be perpetuating falsehood and now their lies are brought to bare.
Well trump has to be doing something good as president one way or another. I mean it can't all be bad right? And if theres one aspect trump can actually be good at, its with the economy. Being a successful businessman, who doesn't pretty much know a lot in politics, i think this is his field. And i'm sure trump can very well do positive things with the economy

The whole operation of Government and the media exists to cover up the freedom that people have.
The Preamble to the Constitution says:
In other words, if Government isn't a benefit for you personally in some way, it is not doing the thing it was designed for. The Preamble is the writing that shows why Government was set up, and essentially authorizes Government to exist.
So, what can we do about it when Government messes with our lives? Go to the 9th Amendment and use it and the jury of the 6th and 7th Amendments to get rid of the Government crooks. The 9th Amendment says we have all the rights that we always had, before Government was ever around.
Ninth Amendment:
Sixth Amendment:
Seventh Amendment:
Sue those Government people who harm you personally. Why personally? Because even Government says that if they act outside of the authority of their Government office, they are acting personally. And the Preamble says that they are to be a benefit if they are in Government.
The Preamble to the Constitution says:
We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Ninth Amendment:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Sixth Amendment:
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
Seventh Amendment:
In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise reexamined in any court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.

Trump is coming up with stupid lines ,quotes and decisions which stands out more than this news and so is the reason we are seeing more people opposing the Trump administration. Even in the wake of the academy awards people were loud and clear to voice their opinion towards the Trump administration and he does have a large mouth and he have to control and learn to talk like a president . 
Yep. I have often thought that we should get a simple farmer for president.

Please check the real-time American debt clock:
http://www.usdebtclock.org/
You can see that the debt is still increasing. Trump will not be able to reduce the American federal debt. It will take many years of effort and efficient management. At the best, he can hope to slow down its growth.

It wouldn't be all that difficult to make a debt clock that looked just like this one, but ran the other direction.
It is not that hard. Eliminating the wasteful spending will do the job. I can give two examples. The first one is the invasion of Iraq, which cost some $2 trillion. The other is the F-35 program, which has cost around $1.5 trillion till now.

Correlation and causation are two different things.
What you're sharing is "Fake News"...or in Trump's vernacular #FakeNews.
This article doesn't say that Trump slashed the debt. This article states that the debt has gone down since he took office. And with a machine as big as the US government, it likely takes a bit of time for any decision a President makes to affect the finances and then for those affects to be recognized and reported on.
What's more likely is that the reduction in debt is either (1) due to something Obama enacted months ago, or (2) unrelated to any Presidential decision.
I look forward to seeing if the Donald really can reduce the debt...the US spends way too much money...on everything. We'll have to wait a year to see if the Donald has actually had an impact.

I would say that it's less of #FakeNews and more of something that is just timed to look a bit nicer. The fact is true by Donald Trump, but it's a very specific time frame used to deceive people into thinking he's had an impact this quickly. Not saying he hasn't had an impact to the stock market and other economic systems but it's not even like a budget has been advised by his administration yet so he hasn't been able to fight for a difference.
I think if you give him and his administration around 2 years you should see some wonderful results, but it's too early now to see and hope for anything. Though he has done a lot more than any other president in a short period of time.

This is called information war. Supporters of Trump and Hillary has divided the country into two parts and each of them wants to lose. So it is possible to break the country and bring it to the civil war. Russia is now trying to arrange a situation in Ukraine, but this is a different situation.
AGREED!
I blame the Democrat and Republican parties, each of them, equally, is bringing this country down.
- The both try to discredit the other side
- They each only succeed if they can entrench themselves further in their ideology, and "proving" that the other side is "wrong"
- When they win they declare they have a mandate to blanket the country in their ideology and when they lose the are further emboldened to be stubborn and not work with the other party
- Both parties are hypocritical in their ideology or practices (i.e., Democrat use of Super Delegates to remove the "democratic vote" of their party supporters during the primaries, this is what kept Bernie out of candidacy; Republican saying they want less government and then proceed to set laws forcing how Americans act (marriage, abortion, immigration, etc)
These two parties need to each take a giant step back to center and learn to work with and compromise with the other side.
If they can't do that they'll continue to fuel the divide, which can only be resolved in (1) the people abandoning these parties for a more moderate third options, or (2) civil war.

Well, check with Snopes. LOL.
I don't think Snopes is addressing it.
But I did find these articles:
- RedState: Trump Tweets Out National Debt Drivel He Saw On Fox and Friends http://www.redstate.com/jaycaruso/2017/02/25/trump-tweets-national-debt-drivel-saw-fox-friends/
- Politifact: Why Donald Trump's tweet about national debt decreases in his first month is highly misleading http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2017/feb/25/donald-trump/why-donald-trumps-tweet-about-decline-national-deb/
- MontherJones: Donald Trump Obliterates the Deficit! http://www.motherjones.com/kevin-drum/2017/02/donald-trump-obliterates-deficit
Trump hasn't signed an legislation to influence the debt yet.
Damn, you Trumpers are so quick to latch on to fake news, if CNN had backed a Republican option you'd be claiming they're the best news source in history!
I agree with Republicans about half the time and I'm embarrassed for you all.
Trump could gain some credibility if he didn't pull this kind of stuff AND if his supporters didn't repeat it.
