Republicans used to say we can cut taxes and they will pay for itself but even if they do not, oustanding, we can government spending, cut all these things we can starve the beast/

How did that work out?

This is what every body says about their predecessor. Doesn't matter the party.

They both want to spend spend spend just on their own priorities

You strive to post the most fear mongering lies perpetuated by the leftist slime. This is a good one.

There's two parties.

One has some members that want to cut spending and others that pretend to but don't care.

The other has zero members that want to cut spending.

You've blamed the first party while excusing the second.

This also contains a fallacy. not helping is not the same as inflicting harm.

The problem with Republicans is they vote like Democrats.

No one actually ever bought the starve the beast comment. It just went keto friendly. Pork is keto friendly.

It’s funny you still believe there are separate parties.

Trump didn’t want to starve the beast. He wanted to feed it!

When have we tried it? Other than recessionary dips, we've never really cut tax revenues.
