The House Speaker Vote (Republican) Reminds me of…..

Jack Nicholson Yes GIF
 
Ah! After 55 minutes and recounting the votes, we gave another Republican landslide victory… this time for Speaker of the House! Mike Johnson will rule over the herd of (Republican) kittens until they decide they don’t like him any more!
Yeah, looks like they won another "mandate," with their 2-vote victory. Lol.

It's going to be tough getting project 2025 passed.
 
Every time I read this board I appreciate the Trump victory more and more. Just knowing that the Shitlibs will be miserable for 4 more years is glorious to me.

Really? You think with a 2-vote margin you have enough support on the right to kill healthcare, eliminate the department of education, and raise taxes on the middle class?

You live in fantasy land.
I think that if the Dems agree to extend the tax cuts, Trump is going to half to back off in 2 or 3 if his cabinet (level) picks… if not, the Senate will make these appointments very expensive for him via the hearing process.
Does anyone here really believe Speaker Johnson’s $10T dollar spending plan has a snowballs chance in hell of passing?

You're the one living in some fantasy world, Trump wants to lower taxes for ALL. Secondly improving healthcare is not killing healthcare especially in the real world.

You and your ilk got absolutely curb stomped in the 2024 elections, deal with it.

So you are “ok” with Trump adding $10T to the nation’s debt per Johnson’s plan? America is long past “tax cuts” as a solution to its debt problem…what America is looking at is a sizable TAX Revenue increase to reduce the nation’s debt load. Trump is not on-board with either plan. Of course the alternative is sizable cuts in SS, MediCare and military… and there are enough Dems and Repubbers that will oppose this as a solution. Pick your poison.

As if on cue someone (Joel) breaks out the Democrat Party scare tactics of cutting SS or Medicare, you loons have been saying that for 50 years. The voting public has given you liberal Democrats your pink slips because nobody accepts your Little Party of Sadness anymore.

W hat else / where else are you going to cut Rico? SS, MediCare and military are the only “discretionary” $$ available left in the budget. Look at what your “leader” endorses…..a spending bill that adds $10T to thenation’s debt..≥.overnight! The Wall Street boys and girls ain’t going to bite into that apple….not now. Bond rates would drive inflation numbers higher than we have seen since the 1970’s…..devastation of the world economy….except for the very rich (Trump’s buddies) is almost guaranteed. This is moving at us very fast….and Congress isxn’t smart enough to see this….and Trump doesn’t give a shit because he and his friends will make A LOT of $$$! Normally debt and deficit spending is not a bad thing….IF it is managed and the numbers are reasonable. What Trump and Congressional (House) leadership o is envisioning is NOT reasaonable and neither are their numbers.

America needs to start PAYING down its debt and start now. That means the government has to Increase its revenues (taxes) sooner than later….and like Willie Sutton (the bank robber said when asked why he robbed banks) the rich and corporations are where the $$ is in America…..they have had a free ride at the expense oƒ the middle class and working poor for more than 40 years now….Remember Bill Clinton told America 30 years ago that “trickle down doesn’t work”…and he was right. MY solution is go back to something that worked…ands it was BIPARTISAN…..Raise taxes to the Clinton Rates of the 90’s and make a rule that any additional spending must be paid for NOW….not down the line (pay-go).

We all realize Biden left Trump with a mess to clean up.

DJT had given America the best economy in the history of the world, I fully expect he can get us out of this mess Biden left us with.
