“You idiots!

All the more reason to view Trump’s agenda to raise the ceiling as a mixed signal and contradiction.

You can’t claim to want lower spending by wanting the ability to spend more. It is absolutely illogical, irrational, and questionable. It makes no sense at all...

Probably one PR disaster after another.

DOGE hasn't cut anything yet, and big cuts will require Congressional approval. I assume the conservatives would be satisfied with cuts regardless of whether they came from DOGE or not. But just because DOGE exists doesn't mean cuts will happen.

The core conflict is that Trump is not a deficit hawk, and will be unlikely to support cuts he believes will hurt his popularity.
