Who stands with Elon here, re:BBB?

Informal polling. Upvote means you stand with Elon, down vote means you don't.
Chicken, please implement a polling option!
I'm my first upvote, Trump is wrong here, I'm sorry.

Are you for cutting subsidies or not?

Team Elon!

Maybe I’m ignorant, but why can’t Trump propose all of his points and wants in a completely separate bill to be voted on?

Why is Elon mad that he’s losing billions in govt handouts? Why are staunch conservatives now supporting wasteful spending when all morning they’ve been arguing about it?

What's in the bill? I don't know. I saw one thread that said the CBO said it would raise the deficit and another thread that said the CBO said it would reduce the deficit?

Gotta just say, I love your name.

I’m with Elon. Same old thing with Trump. Come up with a bad idea, ostracize anyone who disagrees. Repeat

I've read that other polling shows that there are a lot of unhappy Republicans in respect to this bill.
One point of clarification, did they actually change no tax on tips back to no tax on tips, or is it still a credit in the bill?

You'll probably get away with this one, though I was told in red letters by admin that poll threads are verboten, early in my shitposting career the one time I started a poll thread.
But on topic, the BBB is shite. I mean, it's total dog shite. The last thing we need is for the greedy and corrupt Etatist Kleptocrats to pass another massive spending bill that increases both spending and the debt ceiling, increases the pork kickbacks and rejects every single proposed DOGE cut that has been put forth in the past 5 months. Anyone that still cannot see they're deliberately trying to destroy America at this point, is willfully ignorant.
I just need that no tax on overtime thing to go through so I can pad my stockpiles and larder for the collapse that's coming. We're going down in flames, and I need to be more ready.

I think what Elon wants is what we all want, but simply isnt realistic.
What can be included in THIS reconciliation is what CAN be included in THIS reconciliation such that it will not require 60 votes. Which would require the Dems to sign off on the entitlement cuts THIS reconciliation delivers on. It can’t fix everything, but is the first step.
It’s disingenuous to pretend otherwise.
Personally im fine just letting the gov shut down. But any border security or other programs trump admin is trying to run will be cut off at the knees, and we will continue to fall behind the mass production of drones and anti-drone equipment for our military. We aren’t tooled for a modern conflict. And my taxes will jump ip significantly (btw, im in fact not a billionaire)

I think what Elon wants is what we all want-ed for decades up until the last few weeks, but Trump told us we want something else, now, so we’ve immediately changed our minds and now must justify big, wasteful spending and debt increases like we’re Democrats- which, as it regards fiscal policy, we are, now.
FIFY.

I don't know what Elon is for. What, exactly, does he want to cut.
Seems easy to criticize when you don't offer a solution.

I don’t stand with anyone. People acting like this is the only time cuts can be implemented are overreacting.
Eta and to think everything that’s wrong with spending and government can be fixed in one piece if legislation is retarded. It’s a process that does need to start with this administration.

If Trump had any balls he’d deport Musk and have Putin assassinated.

Where do i stand if I think Elon is making some very valid points, also recognize that the bill has some very good cuts and things in it and is an improvement on priors, but also isn't nearly good enough?
