The Uniparty pretends that one “side” has lost and that the other “side” has won in order to keep up the illusion that there are two sides.

Not in my opinion. They do just enough to try and con conservatives, but their heart is not with conservatives. They love fake polls that make us look bad.

I wouldn’t go so far as to call this a victory, but it is interesting to hear such talk of compromise, however slight, from the Democrats. We haven’t heard that sort of thing in years.

Anyone who assumed DJT would be fiscally responsible is an idiot.
He didn’t run on that. It’s not a politically attractive position. Like most of Conservatism.

He stuck to certain social conservative positions, and that did it.

Sad thing is he’d “try to stop them” and then sign em. he tried line item vetos once and I think they railed em on it.

A real, true sign that the debt-ceiling bill is very bad is the lack of an explosive reaction against it by Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, AOC and several other prominent psychopathic Democrats.
