NO THERE IS NOT
DOGE hasn't saved a dime, and by cutting IRS employees has already cost more than they could ever save, meanwhile the Trump admin is pushing a budget that just keeps adding to the deficit to pay for more tax cuts for the hyperwealthy.
Why are you so unaware of these things?
I'm aware but there is no consensus for that, or addressing the budget, all while our infrastructure crumbles at the same time.
Now there is at least an attempt to address our budget. Regarding foreign policy, other leading nations are not giving aid, they are investing. We could just as easily do our "soft power" stuff in a more equitable way. Every controversial budget change, that's even mocked by leaders of G-7 nations, are things those G-7 nations are already doing. Aid for repayment? yeah they're doing that. Not a controversial concept in reality.
And yes, I still want the federal government to do the things you mentioned regarding federal highways, railroads... infrastructure projects we both agree on.
