Kamala Harris and Donald Trump both plan to boost spending. How would that affect the federal debt?

Brian Hughes, a Trump campaign senior adviser, told CBS News in a statement. "President Trump's historic tax cuts laid the foundation for robust, non-inflationary growth that fueled more revenue for the federal government, not less."
"President Trump's plan will rein in wasteful spending, defeat inflation, reduce the burden of interest costs and ignite economic growth that fuels federal revenue, so we can make our economy great again," Hughes added.
The Republican nominee has argued that tariffs on U.S. imports would cover the tax cuts, but the study findings challenge that claim. Many economists also contend that Trump's proposed tariffs on goods from China and other trading partners would increase prices for consumers.
Can he do that through executive orders or does he need congressional support?
