War Room’s Steve Bannon discussed with Dave Brat MAGA’s narrow window to fix the deficit.
“The number one thing people talk to me about is and, it’s not taxing the wealthy, right? It’s not, but it’s cutting, it’s getting rid of these deficits. We can’t keep adding to this debt,” Bannon said.
“We are still financing this debt kind of short-term. We haven’t gone long term with this debt,” Bannon continued.
“President Trump has been very bold. He’s talked about what he wants you know, to get to a balanced budget,” Bannon said.
“What is the hesitancy of the political class up on Capitol Hill to do their task and get their arms around? At least start with discretionary spending,” Bannon said.
“The hesitancy is what you will see in all the mainstream headlines right now. We haven’t cut any money and yet the headlines are all we are ruining the environment, we are ruining Medicaid, Medicare and all that. It’s all totally false,” Brat said.
“There is a 10 or 20 billion dollar hunk of corruption going from Medicaid payments to California for illegal immigrants,” Brat explained.
Brat explained that it is business as usual when it comes to the budget numbers. He explained that what drives a lot of the fear is the midterm elections, but also explained the American people want real change.
“We got the same budget numbers basically on file right now we’ve had for the past 30 years. Nothing new is gonna change because they are scared of the midterm elections,” Brat explained.
“You do big bold proposals that people love and then you win. But they are not doing that. They won’t message on any of this. There is corruption all around us. The American people are overwhelmingly against the swamp,” Brat said.
“Sometimes you got to take a leap of faith and just do the right thing. In addition, it’s the right thing to do to save your country,” Brat said.
“We are gonna have a 2 trillion-dollar deficit in the first fiscal year of President Trump because we basically signed on to Biden’s budget,” Bannon said.
“All the swamp, all the globalists, all the big spenders, the Democrats are just waiting out Trump. They are gonna see what they can do with lawfare, with the judiciary,” Brat warned.
