I've said well before Trump, that I am not in favor of cutting Medicaid and Food Stamps. Sadly, the Sheeple Liberal culture has created a permanent underclass in America - which the Liberals wanted to do- and, well, they succeeded. And depriving Americans of health care or a kid from food....not my version of "America First"
As someone who loves to (100% correctly and proven to be correct) criticize how Democrats speak and alienate people, I will say that the list Pucks posted is actually very smart. It's REAL. It speaks ENGLISH. Real people don't give a shit about hearing things like "The top 1%". "$50 billion in cuts". "$50 billion in tax breaks for the rich"----- they care about how it affects them.
IF Democrats can drop the they/them/blue-haired-i-wanna-cut-my-nuts-off movement, and TALK LIKE THAT LIST pucks posted, things. could get really interesting really fast because right now, Trump seems intent on losing political capital.
Can Dems help him with that?
Disclosure: The only thing that affects me here would be ACA subsidy cuts. I keep my income really really lov to milk you people for this money but I always considered it extra vacation funding at best.
Another scenario: Let's pretend this budget in current form passes the Senate (I doubt it) but let's pretend. I think that GIVES the country to Democrats not just in 2026 but in 2028 and this is the question I ask repeatedly:
Is Club 401K willing to compromise? If it's a 51% win you seek - -ok, you'll get that in 2028.
I wonder - would you want to adjust your pitch a bit, give a little bit, maybe get a 54-55% win, bigger majorities in Congress....and do some real things?
That's the big question here.
Yes, as usual - I'm thinking ahead.
If you decide on campaigning in AMERICA this time - you are being given the chance on a silver platter.
Governor Beshear should scare the shit out of my side, providing he isn't hamstrung by the They/Them/him/her extremists.
On my side, I don't know why we insist on hurting ourselves this way. I guess on this one, Sheeple is right. "Both sides do it". lol

A whole lot of MAGA pols are going to lose their cushy jobs if this happens, are they going to

Maybe a lot of those MAGA pols felt they had to vote this way so as to appease King Donny, but are hoping that the bill won't get through the Senate as is.
The tax cut for the wealthy is obscene. Let is lapse.

The free market requires us to obliterate SNAP and Medicaid funding in order to finance sweeping tax cuts for the ruling billionaire class,
while still pushing a $4 trillion federal debt increase. It's just sound economics...facepalm.
Remember when this guy was a conservative hero?...
