I like the extension of tax cuts, it won't help with the debt, but if you riding the Titanic, you might s well go first class.
"Americans ages 65 and older can claim an extra standard deduction ($2,000 for a single filer, $1,600 per qualifying spouse in a couple) on top of the standard deduction available to all taxpayers who don't itemize. The reconciliation bill adds a 65-plus bonus deduction of $6,000, through the 2028 tax year."
I'm not clear about the reductions to Medicare or Medicaid, it's either going to literally kill millions or cut the money spent on illegals, but I am convinced it's mostly Caca de Toro for the pleasure of the party faithful.

None of the above. individually or taken all together, justifies the national debt "hole". We are just digging it deeper.
No reason for anymore deficit driven budgets- except in time of war.

The CBO is projecting this big beautiful bill will add 3.4 trillion to the national debt over the next ten years. This is awful and we should all be outraged.

President Biden added 8 trillion to the national debt in four years and that was wonderful and magically delicious!

I’m thinking some of the outrage is a bit theatrical.

"Comparison to Previous Administrations: Some sources indicate that the growth in the annual deficit under Trump, relative to the size of the economy, was the third largest of any US presidential administration, behind George W. Bush and Abraham Lincoln. During his first term in office, Donald Trump oversaw a significant increase in the US national debt.

"Total Debt Increase: The national debt rose by approximately $8 trillion during his Trump's four-year term."

A House-passed reconciliation bill would reduce federal funding to states that provide state-funded health insurance to people in the U.S. illegally, resulting in 1.4 million people losing coverage, according to a preliminary Congressional Budget Office analysis. But President Donald Trump and Republican lawmakers have wrongly cast the bill as removing these immigrants from Medicaid.

Medicaid is a joint federal-state government program that provides health coverage for low-income individuals and families. People living in the U.S. illegally are not eligible to receive Medicaid benefits other than for emergency medical services.

I heard AOC is MAD because so many Medicare and Medicaid Scammers are being caught. 15 defendants were charged last month in Eastern NY. Well, that's got to put a dent in her campaign war chest. Trump says she's LOW IQ. I'm not so sure of that, but she sure is a crooked COMMIE.
