It’s absolutely ridiculous that Democrats continue to push their reckless spending agenda, but what’s even more frustrating is when Republicans fail to uphold the principles of fiscal responsibility they claim to champion. Texas Rep. Chip Roy didn’t hold back when he called out his fellow Republicans for “never having any ounce of self-respect.”
“You’ve added to the debt since you were given the majority again on November 5th. It’s embarrassing. It’s shameful,” Roy exclaimed, highlighting the hypocrisy within the party.
He continued, “Yes, I think this bill is better than it was yesterday in certain respects. But to take this bill yesterday and congratulate yourself because it’s shorter in pages, but increases the debt by $5 trillion is asinine.”
Roy’s frustration was palpable as he declared, “I am absolutely sickened by a party that campaigns on fiscal responsibility and has the temerity to go forward to the American people and say you think this is fiscally responsible.”
