Serious question. If you have to lie to try to make trump look bad why not just stop lying and join his side. Seriously??

Correct

Congress is always the problem and never the solution.

Omnibus legislation should be illegal by constitutional amendment.

Enormous bills like this will always be full of bad shite. And lots of it.

The choice to not pass these things in pieces was a mistake. Yes, I understand reconciliation and how it works

This is the only way to pass anything due to the filibuster in the Senate.

Are you sure?

Obviously the propaganda media disapproves.
Obviously their propaganda serves a purpose.

However, given the crap being fed to the public, the Trump job approval ratings are flatly amazing to me. E.g., Coverage ratings:
• CNN: ~93–97% negative
• NBC: ~93–97% negative
• CBS: ~91% negative
• NYT: 87% negative
• Washington Post: 83% negative
• WSJ: 70% negative
• Fox News: only about 52% negative (making it the "exception")

---

By comparison, the POTUS Job Approval Numbers:
"Do you approve or disapprove of the way President Trump is performing his job?"

Rasmussen Reports: 51%-47% (+4)

I&I/TIPP: 44%-45% (-1)

Emerson: 45%-46% (-1)

RMG Research: 51%-47% (+4)

Trafalgar Group: 54%-45% (+9)

InsiderAdvantage: 54%-44% (+10)

I couldn't care less about pollsters who are historically terrible. Why do you?

They are literally nothing but MSM amplification.

Republicans just can't get out of their own way.

Republicans dangle one or two policies that are wildly popular with their right wing base, and then load in a hundred things that are wildly unpopular with everyone. They have played the same bait and switch game forever.

It’s why Republicans can never get anything done when they have a majority.

If they enjoy being in Congress, they had better step in line with MAGA. With Trump's polling right now, re-applying for a job every two years is a great way to get back to what you were doing before getting elected.


and this ladies and gentlemen is why we never get spending cuts....because instead of doing the right thing and decreasing the size of government like they were elected to do, they are constantly worried about getting reelected.

when you have so called conservatives speaking like this....then we have a problem.


trump isnt god, he is wrong sometimes and he is wrong about this fricking bill. This bill is the same type of bill we railed against when oboma and biden were president...but now that our side wants it....its suddenly good?

go frick yourself, non principled pussy

tarriffs are taxes, that doesnt mean they cant be used for good



i dont have tds at all. anything but.....but this type of bill is bullshite

but at this point i have resigned myself to just getting it passed because that is wtf they do and mike johnson is a people pleaser, its what he does. Atleast it should help my wallet in the short term and gives more funding for the border which i personally think is the number 1 issue

but in the end, conservatives should not be supporting these types of bills. I dont care that trump wants it. its a stupid policy and we should stop passing any of this shite until the pass a real budget and I dont care that if that means a shutdown, im good with that.

cant keep living in fear everytime someone threatens a shutdown.

but nothing will change until we get term limits because everyone is just worried about getting reelected over and over.

Permanently extending expiring provisions would add $4.6 trillion to deficits over the 2025–2035 period



So you must think we have a revenue problem and not a spending one.
