What are SOCIALIST Democrats doing in Congress?

[Independent thinker]

Lmao.

Then why didn’t Republicans cut spending when they were in power?

Both sides pretend to care about spending but only when the OTHER side is in power.

Republicans weren't in power. In order to be in power you need the White House, the House, and a supermajority in the Senate. Why do Democrats refuse to cut spending?

You are the deadbeat. Maybe the rich should be paying more.

The rich ARE paying the vast majority of federal income taxes collected.

McCarthy has outlined no spending cuts.

They are working on it. Biden and the dems have specifically said they refuse to even talk about it, while submitting a budget with zero cuts. Even the IMF has begged Biden to cut spending because fighting inflation with increasing interest rates has brought on bank failures and led us closer to recession where many will lose their jobs.

Start the cutting at 15% across the board. There is nothing that says one program can't be eliminated or cut way back to fund another if it's all that important. That's what we elect the politicians to do, make hard choices.

That and all climate change hoax spending throughout the various agencies should be eliminated.....Not another nickel. Hell, that likely good for 5% right there.

Thank you for destroying your own argument. I can discuss things openly with Conservatives or even Republicans but attempting to discuss anything with you MAGAts is like trying do discuss something with Achmed the Dead Terrorist.

What is going on is the MAGAts in charge of the House refuse to discuss anything. Biden is open for discussion therefore so is the Senate. You MAGAts are the party of NO.

Why did Republicans refuse to cut spending?

So you have a problem with Democrats refusing to cut spending, but you don’t have a problem with Republicans refusing to cut spending. Weird.

Have you ever voted for anyone that held these same views?

Has there been a candidate, ever, who has held those views? Likely no candidate would ever run in that platform, probably because, like JackOfNoTrades has said, it’s unrealistic…not because it’s not the correct thing to do, but because the bureaucracy is so big, it would be impossible to unravel it.

He's not open for discussion at all. In fact, he has made it quite clear that he will not talk about spending cuts and even presented a budget with zero spending cuts. I don't know what universe you are in but it isn't this one.

You must be confused. It is Biden and the dems who refuse to even talk about cutting spending.

Now, prove that he hasn't asked for discussion on it? And don't include your normal rtwing friutcake liars.

Breaking: Biden creating another home mortgage crisis with rule changes so people with poor credit scores and less money for down payments can get a home mortgage they don't qualify for. To pay for it Biden is punishing borrowers with higher credit scores and larger down payments, hitting them with a fee.

Right. But Trump was open to talking about cutting spending, right?

You have a problem with Democrats for refusing to cut spending but you have no problem with Republicans refusing to cut spending. Why is that? Looks awfully hypocritical and partisan for someone who claims to be an independent thinker.

 

[Independent thinker]

How can he be asking for discussion when he has already closed the door to discussion?

Why are you trying to change the subject? I don't give a damn about Trump, never have, never will. Why does he live in your minds? Can you have a discussion that doesn't involve Trump?

I’m just highlighting your hypocrisy.

You criticize Democrats and Biden for something. Yet you don’t criticize Trump and Republicans for the same. Why is that? Looks very partisan.

Republicans are the ones who are wanting to cut spending while Biden refuses to even talk about it. Republicans put forth their outline. How about calling their bluff? This has nothing to do with Trump.

And what did Republicans do about cutting spending while Trump was in office? Did they put forth an outline to cut spending? Why didn’t they end up cutting spending?

Of course, none of that matters to you, right? You just need them to pretend to care about cutting spending while Democrats have the presidency. Because you don’t actually care about cutting spending.

Can you debate without mentioning Trump? He owns your soul.

Care to address that?

I already did but you can't seem to debate without mentioning Trump.
