House passes new bill on budget without raising debt limit

[meaner gene]

LOL It's called negotiation. He cleaned their clock

1,000% Kudos!
Trump got his ass reamed, when 170 republicans defied his threat to primary them if they voted for a bill that didn't lift the debt ceiling.

 

[White 6]

Ok.

If it passes the Senate, Potato may veto it.

But if not, maybe once the new Administration is in place, Congress can get down to passing a real budget.

If both house actually do pass, it is doubtul Pota,..er, uh, Joe will leave a farewell Christmas present of shutting down the government. There may be changes in the Senate, but who knows? Whatever, if Elon and Donnie want unlimited federal spending without a debt limit even being discussed, they won't be getting it for Christmas, this year and will have to decree it to their minions in the two houses next year.

We should only raise the debt limit in time of major war that involves the United States, or some kind of giant disaster like an asteroid or eruption of the Yellowstone Supervolcano.

trump. Your messiah, disagrees with you
He wants to eliminate the debt limit. His billionaire buddies need a tax break

LOL DON't know much about negotiation do ya?

tRump wanted the debt ceiling suspended for two years.

Did he manage to "negotiate" that?

Actually that was Trump's "deal breaker"
He threatened to primary any republican that voted for a bill that didn't suspend the debt ceiling.

I guess Trump has a couple of hundred primaries to throw money at now.

Like using our SS and Medicare for tax cuts for Leon Musk.

Musk made billions and billions from government tax incentives to buy EV's like Tesla's.
Musk has billions in government contracts.
I'm wondering if he'll DOGE all those government subsidies of EV's.

You can hear anything and everything these days, much of it trial balloons and pipe dreams. I do not know if that is what he wants Donny to work on or not. We will simply have to wait and see. I don't mean to be boring, but nothing is real until the new administration actually takes control. Right now, he's just calling the shots and using Don's influence on this budget continuing resolution. The real deal, does not happen until they get actual power, so I am not prepared to worry much about it. We will simply have to wait and see.

LOL we can’t all be Creepy and get 100% in every negotiation, every time. Must be why you’re more successful than the billionaire two time President.

LOL. I’ll send him a note that he should be sad.

 

[Rigby5]

It is extremely important to NOT raise the debt ceiling, since our currency is near collapse as BRICS is gunning to take over.

 

[TimFitz]

LOL, He's not even President yet, but he got a 1500 page pork laden behemoth of new spending reduced to a 118-page package would fund the government at current levels through March

Nonsense.

It’s the same bill.

Trump wanted to get the debt ceiling eliminated so he could borrow and spend to his heart’s content.

He got nothing.

 

[TimFitz]

Your beloved fuhrer got zero. ZERO.

He wasn’t negotiating, either. He was bullying. Which is what low intellect types think is negotiating.

Negotiating is what happens when you enroll your team into the plan before you start the stunt.

he had his bluff called. Total failure.

The Republicans in Congress may be afraid of him, but they don’t trust him.

 

[Zincwarrior]

Or, as a predetermined percentage of GDP to debt so that it encourages governments to focus on growth.

Well that was a shitshow for nothing. And now President Musk was just served notice that he is a lame duck.

 

[Rawley]

Nonsense.

It’s the same bill.

LOL "same bill" So, have your cult's propaganda masters given you the talking point as to what was in the 1,400 pages of the original bill that was cut out?

Look at you! Ignoring reality again!!

You kids are PRICELESS!

Back atcha gramps. ONe would think at your age you would have grown some spine and not be a stooge for a corrupt political party. Oh well.

You tell me. You’re the one making the claim. The bill passed without the one and only thing your fuhrer wanted, a by your leave to borrow and spend as much as he wanted.

DOGE is a gimmick for suckers. Trump does not care one whit about debt or deficits.

And yet you suckers believe that he does! What a joke!

 

[Blaster]

And if so, and if it passes, will Potato sign it?

Maybe Dr Jill will.
