Description

What happens when the American Dream turns into a 50-year payment plan?

In this episode of The Politech Show, Dale breaks down Donald Trump’s proposal for a 50-year mortgage — an idea sold as “affordable housing,” but built on bad math and even worse policy.

We’ll look at how these lifetime loans could saddle families with half a century of debt, open the door for new bank insurance schemes, and even complicate what happens when a homeowner dies.

From inflated interest payments to inheritance traps, this episode exposes how Trump’s out-of-touch economics could reshape homeownership — and not in a good way.

🎧 Tune in to learn why real affordability doesn’t come from longer debt… it comes from smarter housing policy.
