Radio host Charlamagne Tha God remarked on Tuesday that the Republican-driven “Big, Beautiful Bill” seems so disliked that President Donald Trump and his party must believe that the upcoming elections are fixed.
On July 4, Trump enacted the bill into law, solidifying his notable 2017 tax reductions and removing taxes on tips and overtime. By maintaining his first-term tax policies indefinitely, the legislation is anticipated to decrease taxes by about $4.4 trillion over the next ten years, based on analyses from the Congressional Budget Office and the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. This legislation also allocates billions to border security and formalizes the president’s contentious stance on immigration enforcement.
During Tuesday’s segment of “The Breakfast Club,” Charlamagne pointed out that lawmakers from both parties have expressed concerns about the bill for different reasons, including contributing trillions to the national debt and reducing access to Medicaid.
“Now, this bill is going to cut Medicaid and food assistance for up to 17 million Americans, right? You see Republicans and Democrats have spoken out against this bill,” he said. “Some folks are calling it political suicide, and they say the GOP is going to lose a bunch of seats in the midterms.”
Charlamagne offered a grim theory that the bill has been put forward because Trump and the GOP have an electoral ace up their sleeve.
“But if the GOP doesn’t seem to be concerned about that, then what does that tell y’all folks?” he asked. “The fight is probably already fixed, when it comes to the midterm elections, you know, and 2028.”
“So, who knows, I just feel like, you know, if something is, you know, political suicide, if you’re using that kind of language for a bill and you pass it anyway, then you know something that the rest of us don’t know,” the radio host suggested. “Or you know something that the rest of us do know, and we just sitting around waiting for the inevitable to happen.”
“Free and fair elections, my a–,” Charlamagne concluded. “We’ll see in a couple of years.”
