Isn't MAGA supposed to be better than the evil Democrats?


How would not caring if Trump's mental faculties started slipping prevent that from being the case?

Why is MAGA's kneejerk reaction to every criticism "but MuH bIDeN!!"?


Not sure about every criticism, but this one is pretty fricking stupid to try and push considering how horribly senile Biden was.

Are you so low on counterpoints that you have to repeat yourself to fill space?

It’s a mix of tax cuts and some spending cuts. I’ll admit the spending cuts aren’t as deep as I’d like, but sometimes you take the wins where you can. On the bright side, suppressors are being removed from the NFA. I wish short-barreled rifles were included too, but again, you take what progress you can, when you can.

He;s spot on.

The only MAGA retort seems to be "He;'s not Kamala or Joe."

Hes more disappointing than either to me, because he is supposed to be the alternative, not complicit.

He's a NYT columnist. Why on earth you think this boards default position would be to assume his approach to this story is anything but extremely biased is beyond me.

Increased spending. Increased deficit.

You're putting lipstick on a pig.

I specifically commented on the "Trump is senile" remarks.

Considering what we just had, and how the left lied to cover that up, how can Biden's name *not* enter the conversation?

Not sure if he is senile, but he's headed that way. Can you explain how one week he's proposing to cut DoD spending in half, and the next he's proposing to grow it by 20%?

How about this. Go line by line and post what you disagree with and we can go from there.



But you don’t want an actual conversation because you have TDS.

So considering what we just went through with Biden, his name shouldn't come up with respect to president's who are/might be senile?

Yet this place acts like newsmax and oan aren't completely biased......

Attack him on substance of the argument here and show me...

Are there not cuts to Medicaid? What did trump say about cutting Medicaid previously and who will suffer from loss of coverage?

Who gets the tax breaks in the bill? Do they benefit the poorest or richest Americans?

How does the bill handle the deficit and debt? Does it move us closer?

Why has it previously been terrible to shove a 1000 page bill together but the current big beautiful bill is well big and beautiful?

It's hilarious that you unironically believe this. Trump is exploding the debt, scamming with crypto, making us a laughing stock on the world stage, and is likely going senile.



You just had 26% inflation under an actual senile man.

I read the bill. Sorry, but I’m just not seeing where Ezra is coming from. It’s as though he made no effort to actually read it.

They are. Would you insta believe their reporting?

No?

Why should we trust the NYT at face value?

Trumps showing some of the same signs.

Again, explain his idiotic tariff rollout and the desire now to add 20% to the DoD budget?

No healthy human is that wishy washy.

Who cares?


If you are an adult male and can work, you don’t get a free ride.

Medicaid and Medicare are two different things.

Why do you expect me to answer your questions when you don't answer mine?

I had a very simple point.

It's hilarious progressives think that Trump going senile would move the needle at all considering what we just went through (Biden).

Your 85 IQ take was "All yall talk about is Biden".

Considering what just happened, on this specific issue, how can his name not come up?
