Earlier this evening, Speaker McCarthy and I reached a budget agreement in principle. It is an important step forward that reduces spending while protecting critical programs for working people and growing the economy for everyone. And, the agreement protects my and Congressional Democrats’ key priorities and legislative accomplishments. The agreement represents a compromise, which means not everyone gets what they want. That’s the responsibility of governing. And, this agreement is good news for the American people, because it prevents what could have been a catastrophic default and would have led to an economic recession, retirement accounts devastated, and millions of jobs lost. Over the next day, our negotiating teams will finalize legislative text and the agreement will go to the United States House and Senate. I strongly urge both chambers to pass the agreement right away.
@POTUS You increased the pentagon budget & cut support for people who need the most help.
@POTUS Oh, so you DO negotiate after all. #ineptLiar
@POTUS Complete government shutdown would be is the cure not the disease.
@POTUS I blame those people who stupidly voted for the Republicans, pure enemy of the people.
@POTUS Oh I can’t wait to hear how you both fucked the American people over on this one. Everyone needs to just stop paying taxes.
@POTUS More overspending, more debt, more inflation. Vacate the House Speaker. Kevin is a failure.
@POTUS Wow, the two-party dynasty came to terms just in time! Doomsday avoided... until next time. 🫠🇺🇲
@POTUS I wish I could just decide to give myself a raise like the government can. They can just print the money whether or not they get enough tax revenue and then it devalues our money even more as another tax and slap in the face.
@POTUS Why do you hate America and Americans so much?
