There is no amount of spending cuts that could ever retire the national debt or even balance the budget. The Treasury could convert all the bonds to dollars and zero out its accounts tomorrow if it decided to, but it offers a reliable way for big money to park their excess dollars and keep the dollar the reserve currency of the world.
The problem has never been about debt. The Federal Reserve is like the Bank of Monopoly. If the Treasury needs dollars to pay its obligations, the Fed gives its members dollars to buy anything the Treasury sells to raise funds.
The problem has always been about spending the government funds in ways that promote growth, peace, security, and stability. What the politicians do is take from one group and redistribute wealth to their donors, causing inflation. If leaders understood how to make beneficial choices for the country’s good, we’d look like Saudi Arabia and Dubai rather than San Francisco and New York.
Johnson acts like if its up to Trump to come up with a bill, he’s NOT a member of Congress or Senate, its NOT his job to make bills, he just wants his agenda to be put through, how its done is up to them!
I can relate to that strategy ... Wis-Con-Sin is ruled by the Mad-i-son commies ... and there is really very little separation of the left to the right ... hence lying Ryan ... who I voted for with that degenerate Mitt Romney... so it is not as if I have repulsed these two faced politicians forever...
Johnson voted for EVERY SINGLE DAMN THING Biden wanted, including sending BILLIONS to Ukraine, yes that is right..BILLIONS to UKraine
I have come to the conclusion that one useless man is a disgrace, that two become a lawfirm, and that three or more become a congress.

What spending does he want to reduce?
How does he want to reduce it?
No bill is perfect. Hopefully the Senate can make it better. I’m afraid they will make it more expensive.
Please state the changes that you want in terms of both amounts and who the changes would affect.
He wants at the VERY LEAST for the DOGE findings to be acted upon!!!
Its now time for the Senate to put its 2 cents in. These folks love to wield their perceived leverage. Its basically extortion because even Johnson can bought… just have to find out what he really wants.
“Decrease the debt” and “decrease taxes for the rich” are things that don’t go together.
He should write a DOGE bill that will do that.
You would think being from New York Trump would know how to lean in people with all his business dealings and dig some real nasty dirt on these GOP Senators and Congress critters...You know these people are dirty and have lots to hide...
“He wants at the VERY LEAST for the DOGE findings to be acted upon!!!”
Which DOGE findings would find in a reconciliation bill?
Yep. He is a fraud. Right now, he is still playing tidily winks about Biden’s mental downgrade while in office... He targets easy and known targets and ignores real matters.
Most of them are frauds, first they scream “Give us back power we will enact real change” but the second they get back power they dont do jack with it except cry about being “Fiscally Conservative” please..these same conservatives gave BILLIONS to Ukraine and signed up with every piece of legislation that the Biden regime wanted
If Trump were to find dirt out on the GOP we wouldnt have any members of Congress/Senate left
That’s correct.
Remember “Repeal Obamacare”? It turned into “Repeal and Replace” like thier ideas are any better. Still a federal solution to a problem they created.
We demanded repeal and they said, “we need the Senate”. We gave them the Senate. They said, “we need the White House”. We gave them Trump.
Then McCain the traitor said NO.
So in 2018 they lost Congress. And they wanted to.
And that is a bad thing? If I were Trump I call the Hold Out GOP toads to the White House and inform them that you will vote Yes and give me your word right now in front of the Press or I call the Press in and start naming all the dirt I have on you guys as we have friends who know what you do in the dark they you don’t want made Public to the folks back home...
Think Trump is to timid to bust GOP heads...
