Not sure what's funny about that. It's clearly a true statement.

Is that so? I thought we’d hit the debt limit and have to shut down non-essential stuff?
This bill doesn't cut any non-essential stuff. Everything cut in this bill would stay at current levels if this bill does not pass.
Except for the Trump tax cuts. Those would expire.

This is a short story telling us how we got to 35T in debt.

I said the BBB won't pass, so no cuts will happen. This comment makes no sense as a response to the conversation chain you're replying to.

We're cutting spending now. With this bill.

No one here will recognize or admit the reality that true fiscal responsibility would require raising sufficient revenue
What no one wants to recognize or admit is that we have a spending problem. Most of which is entitlements. Otherwise, the numbers just don't work.

But we would hit the debt limit, right? That would trigger a shutdown.

When has electing a Republican cut the debt?
It’s a dumb premise that only retard scrambling to conjure up an argument to paper over a ridiculous bill would come up with.

So total government spending is decreasing with this bill.
So we will have a lower deficit than in 2024.
Right?

Oh the problem isn't the Republican Party, it's the Republicans in the House and Senate who are opposing this bill.

And the things this bill cuts would still be covered at the current levels.

There are only two options. If we're not electing Republicans, we're electing Democrats. It's amazing you need this spelled out for you.

No matter what, some people (like you) are going to complain about any bill... No bill is going to get us EVERYTHING.

He did a dang good job ginning up support for this bill. He should be commended.
