  • MAGA - Unlimited Debt Ceiling Needed

    Republicans devised a new plan after Trump and MAGA opposed it: suspending the debt limit for two years. Trump wants the debt ceiling abolished. What could go wrong with that?

    Trump, for his part, endorsed the new spending deal — particularly the debt ceiling increase, which he called “A VERY important piece, VITAL to the America First Agenda.”

    “SUCCESS in Washington!” he wrote on Truth Social. “Speaker Mike Johnson and the House have come to a very good Deal for the American People.”

      Remember when the Republican party was about a "balanced budget amendment"? For at least the next 2 years, Democrats will be the fiscally conservative party until they take power back in 2026 - then, they will revert back to spending like drunken sailors at port.

      Three dozen Republicans have rejected Trump's proposal to lift the debt ceiling.

      Funny, the House of Representatives have 1 job - pass a budget. When is the last time they have ever did that instead of kicking the can down the road?

        Sounds like Plan B failed last night and they're onto Plan C, which at least based on the following tweet, sounds more promising.



        This is how all bills should be done.

          Plan A, B and C failed. Plan D passed with almost unanimous Democratic support. The bill did not have the Trump-demanded debt limit suspension. They increased the debt limit by 1.5 Trillion, promising to cut 2.5 trillion next year. The bill funded everything at the same level until mid-March. They provided disaster relief and passed the farm bill for the next year. It will be interesting to see if Johnson will maintain the speakership in the next congress for going against Trump.

            Trump is now demanding Chip Roy (R-Tx), a Conservative Representative of Texas, be primaried for not being liberal enough and fall in line behind Trump.

            Donald Trump Jr - "It's not just the Democrats that are our foes. It's a vast majority of the Republicans," he said, referring to House GOP members who voted against the Trump proposal to suspend the debt limit.
