It’s not “Trump’s budget bill;” It’s Johnson’s.

But, but 2% of DOGE identified obscene grift and waste is reported to be on the chopping block. What does Elon want from DC, honesty and action?

One definition of Congress is “sexual intercourse” and I guess you need a Johnson to do that to the people of the United States.

But does Trump have to sign off on it at least veto to prove once and for all how the filthy system works.

Trump was the first to call it the Big Beautiful Bill and continues to call it that. He has expressed no concern about it and, in fact, as recently as today was attacking people like Rand Paul for opposing it.

Well, yes, but the Congressional GOP has its own grift to protect. You have to feel bad for Musk - expecting anything productive or good for the country from the Congressional GOP is bound to end in disappointment. The best that can be said of the GOP is that the Democrats are even worse.

Bull Cheese.

This was, is, and will ever be Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill.

One he’s been pushing for for months.

If they want to fix the bill to at least make it better and not so stinky would be to put in the DOGE cuts all of them, and get rid of the green new scam incentives

Trump got input from Johnson and Thune based on what they thought they could get passed.

He has expressed no concern about it and, in fact, as recently as today was attacking people like Rand Paul for opposing it.

He attacked Paul for opposing the bill and not coming up with a better bill that could get passed. Trump is already on record saying let the Senate can "make the BBB better". You must have missed that.

He can go back to where he belongs. We’re sick of foreigners coming to the US and criticizing America.

Trump said the Senate could make the BBB better.

So why don't they flippin do that?

Simple answer. It's because they are the ones who won't make the cuts!

For people who aren't capable of understanding what's going on, yes sure.

Gotta go with Elon and Rand on this one.
It’s immoral to keep dumping debt on top of debt on the future of America.
DJT’s BBB is nothing more than pork-as-usual, but with GOPe blessings.
It’s an abomination and should be stopped dead in its tracks.

All he's been saying is that he wants the reconciliation bill passed because he knows it will be worse if it doesn't.

Johnson is in charge of the content.
