“Kudlow on his show indicated that the CBO is scoring making current Trump tax cuts permanent as causing the high deficit. “

Reagan and Trump both showed CBO flaws. And CBO only forecasts a $230 billion per year deficit. There was a report out this week that said Trump tariffs would erase that.

Already growth is higher than CBO estimates and will continue with the tax and other incentives.

PASS THE BILL. And we will pick up senate seats and votes.

“Right now Congress has a chance to show more competent and responsible behavior by moving forward on Trump’s agenda. “

They are.

“The debt is already in a death spiral with no recovery. “

If we get revenue higher than expenditures we are no longer in a death spiral.

“Good. A journey begins with a single step.”

1. The BILL

2. Trump’s DOGE cuts

This bill includes spending cuts of $1.3 Trillion

Some see $1.3 trillion in spending cuts over the horizon, I see Lucy holding the football.

The future will resolve that dichotomy. The pace has been slower than original predictions but thus far Congress is moving forward, erratically, creakily, grumpy in some cases, but grimly determined.

I am constantly amazed that Trump & his cabinet are still standing under the onslaught of continuous lawfare, weaponized media, the attempts by internal enemies, foreign enemies, would be power players, let alone deep state obstructionists and the corrupt & self serving on the right, to destroy their progress.
Truly they are armored by their determination to win through for the American people.

He who is noble, kind in thought and action, faithful to duty, pure and single-hearted, needs not a weapon, needs not man to guard him, virtue defends him. What though he journey o'er the burning desert, what though he journey o'er unfriendly mountains. Waking or sleeping, though by death surrounded, virtue defends him.

A hymn from my childhood, a source of comfort these many years but unfortunately I have forgotten it's name.

Republicans close in on ‘big, beautiful’ deal

With all its deficiencies, overspending and misplaced spending, it is, nevertheless, all we got. There is only one man who can navigate us out of existential fiscal ruin, and that man is Donald Trump. No one else can. We have to support this bill because there's no other way, no other bill, no other chance.
