With respect to the GOP’s budget bill – the one they habitually call big and beautiful – there are a few things worth bearing in mind, because they are always true when it comes to the Republicans and money.
・They always say tax cuts pay for themselves. They don’t.
・They always say they care about debt and deficits. They don’t.
・They always say they care about budgets in general. They don’t.
・They always say they are cutting taxes for everyone. Not really.
Again these are always true. These are the baseline of all discussion of budgets and taxation under Republican administrations. And because these are always true, the real story is how the Republicans are going to rationalize doing what they want to do without revealing the truth.
And they always pass them in the middle of the night. You know, because it's so legitimate and everything.
