    Fiscal sanity is a beleaguered minority in one of the two parties, and wholly unwelcome in the other. I'm with Ted.https://twitter.com/jameshohmann/status/1285962044978507777 …

    Tom Cotton suggested at a private lunch with GOP senators and White House emissaries that Republicans should be willing to keep racking up debt to maintain power. Ted Cruz, irate about the growing price tag, asked: “What in the hell are we doing?” https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/07/22/daily-202-cruz-vs-cotton-clash-coronavirus-deficits-may-preview-2024-contest-post-trump-gop/?utm_campaign=wp_the_daily_202&utm_medium=email&utm_source=newsletter&wpisrc=nl_daily202 …

        Every recession in my lifetime has been during Republican Presidentcies. At some point Republicans need to evaluate if their fiscal policies are flawed.

        Letting an economy collapse during a pandemic because you're worried about hypothetical high inflation rates in 2032 seems pretty fiscally insane.

        He’s usually right about this; but we’re still in disaster mode and he’s against a relief package

        Ted Cruz doesn't face the voters until 24 at the earliest so he can afford to be principled

        "Fiscal sanity" means raising taxes sometimes.
