Poll: Majority Believe $1.7 Trillion Omnibus Was a ‘Disaster’ for America
Breitbart ^ | 01/10/2023 | Jacob Bliss

Half of the likely voters in the United States said they disapprove of the Democrat-led $1.7 trillion, 4,155-page omnibus spending bill that was rammed through Congress last month to fund the government. At the same time, most agree it is a “disaster” for America.

A Rasmussen Reports poll found half (50 percent) of the respondents disapprove of the $1.7 trillion, 4,155-page omnibus spending bill passed by Congress last month that was signed into law shortly after. Only 45 percent of the likely voters said they approved of the massive spending package.

As Breitbart News reported, 18 Republican senators voted with the Democrats to pass the bloated omnibus spending bill in the Senate, which sent it to the House of Representatives before it went to President Joe Biden to be signed into law. The bill also included billions in aid for Ukraine.

No one cares what the voters think. It’s not like they matter.

Whatever. People are stuck with this because of how they voted or who they let steal the elections.

"Voters" yea that's a blast from the past to a time when your vote counted and politicians cared what you thought.

Watch these same people who disapprove of the $1.7 trillion bill go out in 2024 and vote again for the politicians responsible for this spending monstrosity.

They've been brainwashed to believe its more important to prevent pro-American common sense MAGA people from holding office.

It shows the totally corrupt, Uniparty, Deep-state budget process.

A 4000 page woke free-for-all that nobody reads.

Yet a majority voted in the clowns who approved Omnibus. It happens year after year after year. These polls are meaningless.

Like it matters to these jokers what the “people” think. They own it all now. We’re not voting our way out of this.

The collapse of the American financial system will help usher in the Great Reset.

And probably the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

What could possibly go wrong with such insane, reckless spending?

The supermarket has a roasted chicken which was usually $3.99.
Yesterday it was $11.99.

They are destroying this country and destroying our future. This is the socialist agenda.

When I see the high prices in the supermarket I think immediately of the 1.7 trillion dollar spending bill. You can’t pump that much fake money into the economy without making the cost of everything go up.

Only 45 percent of the likely voters said they approved of the massive spending package.

In a follow up survey, the 45% percent were polled, “What is an omnibus?” 87% responded with, “A new generation electric bus that is carbon neutral.”

The enemies of America dress in suits and ties and call themselves politicians.

And they voted for dems in both the house and senate. Who cares about the economy as long as you can kill unborn babies.

Now that elections have been administratively guided with "quality control measures" so the public cannot elect a candidate unauthorized by the Beltway Bureaucrats, (just consider Fetterman and Biden), the same is being orchestrated to the writing of legislation.

If the swamp can hide its agents inside Twitter, Google, Facebook, and YouTube, imagine how easy it is for them to hide a few thousand influence agents into the writers of 4,000 page spending bills nobody is ever going to read?

Think about that! Do you really think congress writes its own bills? No. The speaker negotiates with the Swamp on the rollout of the bills the swamp writes. Then the speaker is tasked with securing the votes. Congress itself has no role in the assembling and writing those pieces of legislation.

Yeah. Those polled are the same ahos that brought the midterm “red tsunami” to a screeching halt and dragged Brandon’s gonads out of the fire.
