robosmith Posted July 4, 2025 Report Posted July 4, 2025 No One Loves the Bill (Almost) Every Republican Voted For But they didn’t want to anger the president. Quote The so-called moderate Republicans promised they would not slash Medicaid. Conservatives vowed not to explode the national debt. Party leaders insisted that they would not lump a jumble of unrelated policies into a single enormous piece of legislation and rush that bill through Congress before any reasonable person had time to read it. But President Donald Trump wanted his “big, beautiful bill” enacted in time to sign it with a celebratory flourish on America’s birthday. And so nearly all GOP lawmakers in the House and Senate, setting aside these and many other pledges, principles, and policy demands, did what the president desired. The legislation that cleared the Senate and House this week is many things, and it does fulfill some core promises that Trump made as a candidate: The measure makes permanent his first-term tax cuts (and reduces some taxes even further), injects billions in new spending for immigration enforcement and national defense, and rolls back some of the incentives for clean energy enacted by the predecessor whom Trump loathes, Joe Biden. And they will pay with their jobs in November. Quote

Shady Posted July 4, 2025 Report Posted July 4, 2025 So much disinformation. The Medicaid “cuts” are that illegals no longer qualify for benefits, and able bodied people are required to work at least part time. Oh the horror. 1 Quote

I know it doesn't FEEL like he's only been in 6 months but it's still another 15 months to midterms A lot can happen in that time. 1 Quote "That which doesn't kill me... Had better start running."

BeaverFever Posted July 5, 2025 Report Posted July 5, 2025 Why do Republicans always pretend they care about the national debt when EVERY single Republican president runs the debt up massively? Republicans spend their entire lives shrieking and tearing at their clothes about how the debt is going to kill us all and then when one their presidents get elected it’s a drunken debt spree and they’re like “oh well it’s only money and it’s all for a good cause!” Quote

Folks like you only pretend to care about the debt when you can use it to make extremely biased talking points. 1 Quote

Notice that THEIR ONLY alternative to debt is cutting spending, esp on things like healthcare for people who cannot afford it. Quote

Medicaid was never meant to be some form of universal health care and Democrats have been pushing it and pushing and giving it to illegal immigrants. 30 minutes ago, robosmith said: Because the one thing WORSE than debt is REPUBLICANS PAYING for it.

Yes, spending is a significant part of the problem with debt... and deficit spending. Duh. Quote

LOL no they don’t. Tens of Millions of Americans were able to afford healthcare under Obama’s budget. Trump’s bill takes healthcare away from tens of millions. Biden’s budget gave tax breaks for buying zero emissions vehicles. Trump’s budget cancels that and gives tax breaks for gun silencers Bush’s massive deficit was for his ginned up fraudulent invasion of Iraq based on his administration’s lies and fabrications, that killed hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians and thousands of American troops 1 Quote
