So we are going to let them extort us into tons of Republican Pork and bad law just to save those?

Perhaps. No great options. If you let them expire, both good and bad Republicans go down in 2026, and get replaced with Democrats. The Deep State in both parties will ride out Trump's term with not much to show for it.

The president is sailing into a headwind, and progress is rarely straight in such situations.

We are just stupid to fall for the “to save a dollar we have to spend ninety nine cents!”

It is misrepresentation, impractical, and absolutely unproductive.

The tax credit issue is nothing in comparison to what this is going to actually cost the taxpayers in the long run.

I would rather pay a little more in taxes now than get slammed with a huge bill that will require raising taxes later anyhow... PLUS a whole bunch of new laws we don’t need.

Pay now, or pay later... We are still going to have to pay for this either way.
