To flip the script like this means they are desperate.

No, it won’t work.

This was always going to be true.

The deficit is $2T. $1T of that is interest on the debt.

It’s popular to swagger and say okay we’ll just cut spending so there is no further increase in the debt and achieve total victory over the Dems. But no one ever specifies numbers of the 5T spending (we can’t touch the 1T interest) that they can eradicate (2T of it, 40%) and achieve 0 deficit.

What will happen is the Democrat will win on this, the Freedom Caucus will celebrate that they got $5B cut out of the $5T and punch their air at their victory, whilst spending $4.995T Plus 3% increase for inflation.
