Of Course It's a Bad Deal (Kurt Schlichter) |
2023-06-01 |
![]() I really would have liked the GOP under Kevin McCarthy to force the Democrats to accept a budget deal that achieved all our objectives and focused on all our priorities. Whatever this compromise does — and, as of this writing, I have not parsed it closely — it will not do that. Some people are really disappointed right now. I get it, but I think they should have been really disappointed six months ago when we fumbled the midterm elections. That's when this outcome became inevitable. Not a lot of hope for the future in the remaining text. |

#3 They removed the ceiling and pushed the next cap review til the lame duck. In exchange the Dems gave up a hand full of magic beans. What I would like to see is a reporter ask each congressman that voted for this bill what their personal debt ceiling is. By that I mean what national debt amount would be so shameful to them that they would be forced by conscience to resign immediately. |

#1 if the Republicans can stick to the terms of the deal it will be IMO a pretty good deal. it is, however, a big IF also this presumes SCOTUS finds the President's tuition forfeit constitutional also presumes the IRS uses its new funds without persecuting people for political opinions |
