"All we need if for every Republican to be a team player. Grandstanders and RINOs will kill this bill and put a huge dent in Trump's presidency. And if that happens, forgiveness and mercy will be in short supply by the rest of us."
The time has come, and found us here... Okay, so I am paraphrasing the song Where's the playground Susie? But it is time, and we are here. For what? This when President Trump wanted the Big Beautiful Bill all wrapped up with a nice bow on it, passed by both houses of Congress, and ready to sign on Independence Day (that is the 4th of July for lefties). Dare, I ask then - how is it coming? You can ask, but the answer might prove to be elusive.
Donald Trump has had a pretty good run at his first five months of his second term. Not perfect but considering the Democrat and media headwinds he has to endure, not bad at all. This NATO achievement, of getting most of the members to agree to 5% of their GDP (for military spending), was actually like pulling a rabbit out of a hat. And that on the heels of the almost magical feat of blowing up Iran's underground Fordow facility, made for a wonderful June for the president.
But - this Big Beautiful Bill will be his signature achievement - that is, should it happen. And this bill is totally binary. Should it pass and be signed into law, good things will happen for most of us. More money, more opportunities. However, should it NOT be signed, and die on the floor of Congress, it will be a dark day for America. The temporary tax cuts we received during Trump's first term, will sunset at the end of this year. And the tax increase will be a whopper.
Wait - hold on here! If most would suffer should this Big, Beautiful Bill not be signed into law, why in the world would Democrats not support it? Even if just a handful supported it, passing this bill would be a slam dunk. Why then, would Democrats want to commit financial suicide? Because it is associated with Donald Trump. And since many Democrats hate Trump worse than Satan, they would fall on their sword just to kill this bill. Throw in a handful of RINOs, and this bill is already on life support.
Meanwhile, as Trump continues to cast his vision over this land of what a better America could or should look like, the status quo, spend it like there is no tomorrow crowd is active. For the loony left, the "rising tide lifts all boats" thing, is just a fable. Another excuse to skin the poor and feed the rich. For those on the right, this bill would be a keyhole to escape from the four years of inflation that Biden visited upon us all. More money in our pockets to blunt the effect of things being 20% higher in price over the past four years.
It is showtime, or maybe just a showdown for this most important bill. If this gets past, and signed into law, the corks will be popping. If it dies, each and every Republican who voted against it will be dead to the rest of us. Why? We own all levers of power. All we need if for every Republican to be a team player. Grandstanders and RINOs will kill this bill and put a huge dent in Trump's presidency. And if that happens, forgiveness and mercy will be in short supply by the rest of us.
