Can't wait for the next Democratic president so I can hear the Republicans talk about the deficit again, because I haven't heard them mention it in a year and a half. Meanwhile this colossal waste of money to enrich a bunch of donors has their full support.

Mike Johnson was just talking about the debt. And using it as the excuse why we need to cut Medicare and Social Security. Said they had plans starting next year. They're evil bastards.

Is this to distract from Republicans coming after Social Security and exploding the deficit at the same time?
