Hell Freezes Over As Congressional Republicans Don’t Blow It
Kurt Schlichter


The Democrat crowing about how the Big Beautiful Bill is going to be the doom of the Republicans is about as convincing as Zohran Mamdami’s college app claim that he’s a black guy; in his defense, he is more Indian than Elizabeth Warren, in a manner of speaking. Though their social media doofuses and regime media toe-sucks are hooting about how Hakeem Jeffries set a record for running his fool mouth and how voters will totally be angry with the GOP for killing eleventy million people – the BBB is even deadlier than net neutrality, climate change, and not allowing confused children mutilate themselves to conform to their delusions combined – this is a huge and humiliating loss. It is also a rare exception to the usual GOP MO of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Let’s get the obvious out of the way – this victory capped perhaps the most potent first six months of a presidency ever. Donald Trump came in kicking commie tush, and for the last half-year, he’s been landing score after score while melting every temporary setback his detractors have dealt him. Just a month ago, Iran had a nuclear program. Now, it’s a smoking ruin. Today, no innocent honor student undocumented migrant can walk home from reading to orphans without living in fear that ICE will disappear him into an alligator-guarded gulag. DEI is DOA, the stock market is setting records, and colleges are bending the knee to the hated King. Heck, he has even ended the Rwanda-Congo War and brought peace to Zohran Mamdami’s people.

But, without the BBB passing, it would have been all for naught. The Democrats knew it, and they went all out to stop it. When the sky doesn’t fall and the Dow soars higher, they get to explain, “Sure, Trump’s brought America a new Golden Age, but his tweets are still really mean!”

I was shocked at how quickly the House passed the BBB ... it was like the Red Sox not snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in 2004.

It was fiscally irresponsible, but the "non-partisan" scoring of such things always ignores the stimulus effect of tax cuts.  It will toss trillions of dollars into the maw of the national debt over the next decade, but less than 3.5 trillion because the static always overestimates "costs" of tax-cuts.  And there's still time to use other measures to cut the size and cost of government before the 'Rats get a shot at power again.  (If they really get one -- some of the fiscal irresponsibility, the new tax breaks on tips and overtime and for senior citizens will be wildly popular with segments of the electorate the 'Rats, or Elon Musk's new party, need to peel off to have a shot at winning.)

That's a wildly optimistic view. And it ain't gonna happen like that. What WILL happen, almost assuredly, is EVEN MORE spending beyond the 3-5 TRILLION.

And y'all will cheer that too, because they will attach some shiny baubles to it, and the Democrats will make a big show - And y'all will go right down the garden path. Again, sommore.  *****rollingeyes*****

It pays to remember the CBO staffing is about 90% Democrat, and will lie about the scoring.

We'll have to agree to disagree about that.  Historically the CBO underestimates growth in revenue caused by tax cuts.  Always.  We are bound to disagree about what "wildly" is, and that's OK.   happy77

Alright... Let's see what happens when they gather around the trough again this fall. If you think they ain't gonna spend more, you've got another think coming.

And I really don't care if the CBO is factoring high - It is Trillions upon trillions upon trillions. In Obummer's day you were bitching about billions.

friggin trillions, dood.

I get that, we'll have to see.  If there is an unexpected increase in revenue, it will get spent (and more).  It's infuriating.

If the Dems aren't pulling fire alarms to block the vote, then they're essentially OK with it.

They did everything but that.  Instead they went with the talkathon from Dollar Store O'Bastard.
