Because when you cut taxes on the super wealthy, you are effectively taking money away from education and infrastructure and allocating it towards superyachts.
How long do you think we should wait for Congress to significantly raise taxes on the rich? How confident are you that will ever happen? Have you seen a graph of the national debt? How long do you think we have to wait? Why oppose cutting spending now? That's not in conflict with raising taxes for the wealthy, both should be done.
Why is making the public suffer considered fair game but making the super wealthy pay their share politically inconceivable?
When I think of spending cuts, I think of: USAID (23B), that rural fiber project (42.5B) and the electric charging stations (7B), stuff like that. I have a hard time imagining that these are net economic positives, but I am sure you have different services in mind that would be worse to cut. My impression is that the government is actually full of waste. I certainly don't feel like the citizens receive 8T of value in return for the taxes we pay.
No, politics is dead, there is only survival now. Trump will continue to yank our chains, keep us guessing, suppress free speech, target minority groups for extermination- and we have to endure, or run.

I suppose this could be considered a type of gish galloping too.
