I have this theory that Trump’s strategy is to sign off on the CR that adds $2T to the national debt on paper, while clawing back $1T from the last fiscal year through DOGE and then saving $1T in the next one by canceling contracts and firing government workers.

I get it... And I have also considered that at length. But I don’t know if you did the simple math or not. But that is still a net loss of $1 in the negative... And even worse it is even more money to boost the MIC.

The MIC is Trump’s worst enemy. All the opposition he is getting from congress on both sides is backed by the MIC. The MIC and the CIA is who tried to take him out. It is starting to look like extortion pay...
