GOP is going to take the country over the fiscal cliff and blame the White House. And since Biden has long lost his ability to think clearly and speak coherently, the GOP may actually pull it off.[/quote]

Or, if Biden refuses to negotiate and make meaningful concessions, we will go over the fiscal cliff. That's the way i see it.[/quote]

What meaningful concessions is McCarthy offering?[/quote]

He's taken everything except discretionary spending off the table for starters.

How about we go back to the spending budget of 2018? He isn't even pushing that hard.[/quote]

So he has taken 90% of spending off the table and is leaving things like funding police and teachers, maintaining roads, food safety inspections and VA hospitals.[/quote]

What food safety inspections? No one is inspecting food. They're in their office all day surfing the internet, shuffling paper and sending emails to each other about ESG and DEI. You know I'm correct, even if you don't want to admit it.[/quote]

Huh? This really exposes the ignorance of the right. Yes, there are over 9,000 USDA food inspectors who review the processing of our animals like cows, pigs and chickens, as well as facilities that package things like spinach, lettuce, grapefruits, stawberries etc on a daily basis to ensure what we are getting the the market is safe and clean.

Do you really not know this?[/quote]

I know what govt is all about. There's a website with "mission statements" and then there's reality.

Reality is govt is about paper pushing, unbelievable bureaucracy, ridicuous layers of management and busy work.

Reality is, there are hundreds of thousands of Federal employees, Park Service, Food inspectors Postal workers etc spread across the country working hard on behalf of the American public. Your ignorance is a tell.[/quote]

Reality is you could cut the federal workforce by 60% and no one would miss it.

I guess you don't like going to national parks or riding on safe planes or taking medicines that meet quality control standards.

I could go on and on, but there is not cure for blindness.[/quote]

I seem to remember Biden telling us he would cure cancer if elected. Ridiculous.

Meanwhile, we got statements from Biden stating Trump should resign because Covid deaths crossed the 250K mark.  When it crossed the million mark with Biden, silence.

The bureaucracy needs the national parks. The parks don't need the bureaucracy.[/quote]

Not true - remember when Trump was ready to start mining and drilling them for oil and gas?

Parks need protection, careful maintenance to reduce tree diseases as much as possible,  and maintenance of public hygiene facilities and trash … [/quote]

Diseases are nature. Forest fires are nature.

Forest fires clear dead brush. But apparently Gavin Newsom didn't get tbe memo.

No, in reality, federal workers need $$$ because they can't hold private sector jobs.[/quote]
