I concur with these mentioned points.
American foreign policy does well, with a great gunboat president .
American foreign policy does poorly when a cash throwing president presides.

The senate is where this bill will be neutered. With a higher bar for passage, the Democrats will make their demands for implementation to make it even remotely viable to go through.

I don't have high hopes.

Medicaid for illegals MUST end. To fund it is simply ridiculous. To cut the program at all will generate the same amount of end-of-the-world noise, so why not go for it?

after loading the bill with special favors for seniors, tipped income, overtime and, worst of all, interest on car loans.

Yea, giving those over 65 a tiny 4k deduction in lieu of eliminating DOUBLE taxes on SS (which cannot be done in a reconciliation bill) is hardly a "special favor" to seniors.

“billions for building ships”

Russians ships rest on the bottom of the Black Sea.

Jerkass Republicans need to meditate on the red/blue map of the 2024 elections and compare how much redder the Presidential map is compared to the House and Senate map.
