So how are we going to get at that debt? which is what Doge wants to do.
And that's what the Freedom Caucus has been talking about for a long time, is we got to get at that debt. Well, we're going to have to probably have steep cuts in some departments, okay? And we're probably going to have to close loopholes because you're going to have to raise revenue. Trump did that before, by the way, getting rid of mortgage deduction, right? He's done that.

We got to hold them to their positions and we got to watch the wedges that exist within the Republican Party themselves. We got to let them go at each other. which is what we saw the last two years.

We're going to find out if Thomas Massey and Chip Roy and 10 or 12 others, if they're willing to hold the line. on this. And we're going to find out really, if Doge is serious about going after the debt, if they're serious about going after the debt, which is what Elon always talked about.
