“Why would I vote to continue the waste fraud and abuse DOGE has found?"

The response we get is: because "Team Trump" is playing a game of 4D chess, we should continue to fund the same corrupt programs, and have the same bloated $2 trillion debt, that Biden had.

I'll bet you really wish DeSantis was President right now, right?

>>”The response we get is: because “Team Trump” is playing a game of 4D chess, we should continue to fund the same corrupt programs, and have the same bloated $2 trillion debt, that Biden had.”

Those cuts can be made via a recission bill later, after the budget bill is passed. A recission bill can be passed with a simple majority in the Senate. Making those same cuts in a CR would require a filibuster-proof majority, which makes it virtually impossible to do. A long shutdown over a CR will only delay passage of the budget bill currently being negotiated - the one with the tax cuts. “Team Trump” IS playing 4D chess. Try to pay attention.
