> The Republicans are not going to cut the debt
Well, they are also massively cutting state worker jobs. Plus the tariffs will bring in tax money as well. I'm not sure what the net effect will be of these together with the tax cuts.

The last Republican president that managed to cut annual spending was Eisenhower. (Obama and Biden both pulled it off twice though.)
Yes, those government workers cost money, but no, cutting them will not improve the fiscal situation in the USA. The jobs are not being cut in anything even close to a thoughtful or intelligent way.
Even putting aside the obviously moronic ones like getting rid of IRS staff who bring in truckloads of money for pennies of spending, most of these cuts are just going to cause more chaos and inefficiencies than they prevent. E.g. USAID may seem like 'waste' to sociopathic creitns, but it also serves a very deliberate purpose in furthering the USA'S interests abroad and keeping the international community aligned with the USA and open to US businesses
