Chip Roy cuts a promo on his fellow House Republicans

Chip Roy and all the other republicans need to be truthful in what it means to cut government spending. It doesn't mean the private sector will make up the difference because they won't. It means less spending. Less spending could mean another recession. Nobody wants to hear this message.

He's a jerk but every now and then he seems to get something right. Broken clock principle, I guess. thanks for sharing this! Bonus salute to you for using 'cut a promo' correctly. :)

Sometimes Chip Roy shows he understands real problems. One of these days he may realize he's in the party of transferring wealth to the wealthy. That will be a tough day for him.

I don’t have much good to say about Roy otherwise, but he sticks to his principals and isn’t shy about calling out his fellow party members for the hypocrites they are.

Perhaps part of Roy's problem is that he constantly SCREAMS AND GESTICULATES ANGRILY at the rest of the chamber. He's not given to measured discussions. Of course, that's why he gets elected. His constituents don't care if govt works for them as long as they can kick others even if only vicariously.

Buffalo Chip is just bursting with bluster & bullshit. He’s a performance artist playing the role of a drama queen. I’ll take his feigned outrage about the deficit seriously the moment he opposes extension of tax cuts for the wealthy that will increase its size enormously. Been there, dung that.

All of this is moronic. Why is a sovereign government whose currency is trading at almost a 2 year high obsessed with deficit spending? A country's budget is not a household budget. Those that equate the two are either ill informed or deliberately deceiving you to score political points.

Unfortunately they think trash like Fox & OAN are actual news outlets. And now we all get to enjoy the consequences of the painful lessons they’re about to learn

I mean, "balancing the budget" is basically a bad goal; but a Republican calling out other Republicans for hypocrisy of any kind is excellent to see.

Wouldn’t it be fun to defund the government until after January 20th? No one to throw an inauguration or supply security? No one to move him into the Whitehouse, no one to cook or clean up the ketchup.? 🤔
