For a month in the second term of President Donald Trump, his economic policy has become very clear: to reduce the government and savings to taxpayers.
Two points stand out.
First, the cards are Dividend Doge, maybe $ 5,000 per head from savings worth $ 2 trillion as Elon Musk and the company scatter all the wastefraud, abuse and corruption endemic on the wetland DC.
And second, Mr. Trump wants a tax reduction. And he wants them now.
And no Republicans in Senate or Home It should stand in the way of these Trump priorities.
For one reason, they are spectacular good policies for the growth of economics and the creation of a new blossom of blue collar.
And second, he is the president. He won the election, a wide margin, carrying popular vote and all seven rocking countries.
Therefore, the Congress – and I think, especially about Senate – should give the president what he is looking for.
Here’s what the president said last night:
This is how I will work with the Republican Congress to bring the biggest decreas of taxes in American history. And this includes, obviously, that, this includes that we need to extend Trump’s tax reduction … including no tips taxes and we hope that there is no social security tax and without overtime taxes. And that overtime is a sleeper, because I think many people will be encouraged to do a lot of additional jobs when they hear it.
There is a gentleman Trump’s explicit list of promises of a tax notch During the campaign. He wants promises, promises held. And the Republican Congress must give it to him. Trump is on that commitment to his working class coalition.
And let me remind me – from yesterday’s social fasting president Trump Trump: “The resolution of the house implements my full American first agent, all, not just parts of it! We need both chambers to convey the house budget to” start “the reconciliation process II. All our priorities to the concept “One Big Beautiful Account”.
And, by the way, Vice -President JD Vance said CPAC today, “I actually talked to the president yesterday and told me, look, it is very rare that you can get two reconciliation accounts in one congress, who thinks about that that we have to do a lot with that one big, beautiful account. “
Moreover, Mr. Trump signed himself The idea of checking dividend dogs. Here’s what he said last night in the Air Force:
I love it. 20% of dividends, so to speak, for the money we save by going after waste, fraud and abuse and all other things that happen. I think that’s a great idea. // 20% would return a lot of money to the taxpayer, and it also gives an incentive for the taxpayer to go out and report things to us where we can save money.
In addition, Mr. Trump warmed up on the idea that a Republican budget resolution should include a plug that would at least represent $ 1 trillion savings of Doge.
Asked last night about the potential ways to pay Congress to reduce taxes, he immediately said, “If you look at Doge and see what is happening, we save billions of dollars.”
And, once again, I will head to Senator Mike Crapo, Republican Chairman of the Finance Committee, who still tries to convince people to allow the budget reconciliation rules for the Budget Budget and Senate to form their own basic value, including the current policy that would evaluate the prolonged reduction Trump tax as neutral in their deficit.
And CBO must respond to the initial value of the Republican budget, not the other way around.
So, the senators, give President Trump what he wants – please.
