“If the Republican plan passes under the rosiest assumptions, which aren’t even true, we’re gonna add $328 billion to the deficit this year, we’re gonna add $295 billion to the deficit the year after that, and $242 billion to the deficit after that, under the rosiest assumptions” Massie warned, adding “Why would I vote for that?”
I’m with Massie here both parties love to raise that debt ceiling. More free assets for the financial system (Treasuries) more pain for us

You could cut everything pay no one and Massie still would not vote for it. He runs on an idea that you cannot accomplish without give and take. It is literally impossible for us to legally reverse the deficit this next year or two. This is a multi year affair and he doesnt care. He wants it to be his way or the highway. I think he and Chip Roy are in for a hellacious primary next year. Whoever runs against them will be ridiculously well funded. Massie also has been taken stances that hurt his constituents which only adds to him getting primaried or even worse... he wins that and loses to a moderate dem who goes I wont screw yall over.
