This sh*t has GOT to stop.BTW the only elected ‘conservatives’ with credibility enough to ‘erupt’ with ‘outrage’ over the budget are the ones who lent vocal support to the tea party.
Absolutely right! And Mitch McConnel swore to tear it down!
Sen. Cruz Issues Statement Opposing Budget Deal July 23, 2019 | 202-228-7561 WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) today issued the following statement regarding the budget deal reached yesterday: "The budget deal reached by administration negotiators and congressional leadership is yet another missed opportunity to rein in excessive government spending. This deal irresponsibly jacks up spending by $320 billion without real offsets, and suspends the debt limit into 2021. Instead of finally dealing with our nearly $1 trillion deficit and $22 trillion debt, this deal just kicks the can down the road again. Three years ago, the American people voted to move away from the big-government spending of the Obama era. We should work to restore fiscal sanity, rather than perpetuating Democrats' big government programs. I urge administration negotiators to go back to the bargaining table and fight for the president's priorities."https://www.cruz.senate.gov/?p=press_release&id=4598
I posted this on another thread, but it's more relevant here:
@Sanguine Cruz is 100 percent on-target with that one.
The HFC (Jordan and Meadows) are relatively quite on this, proving once again they've been neutered.
This is the kind of thing that a lot of us "NeverTrumpers" were concerned about... that hopping onboard the Trump Train without actually considering the consequences could lead to total abandonment of everything we're supposed to stand for.
