He described himself as a &#8220;cost-cutting Republican,&#8221; tho the bill is expected to increase the national deficit by $3.3 trillion over the next decade. Trump reassured lawmakers that any spending would be compensated by economic growth, asserting that the growth would be &#8220;times 10.&#8221; The Senate managed to advance the bill after a narrow 51-49 vote, but faced opposition from Senators Thom Tillis and Rand paul, who opposed certain provisions. Following Tillis&#8217;s vote against the bill, Trump indicated <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/good-news-three-of-ten-pro-impeachment-republicans-including-liz-cheney-already-have-primary-opponents\/\" title=\"Good ...!

However, soon after, Tillis announced his retirement, citing political dysfunction in Washington. Trump welcomed this news on social media.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">&lsquo;Don&rsquo;t go too crazy,&rsquo; Trump advises <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-unveils-his-6t-budget\/\" title=\"Biden Unveils His T Budget\">fiscal hawks<\/a> as tax bill debate begins<\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2159861\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>President <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a> cautioned fiscal hawks in the <a href=\"http:\/\/washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/senate\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Senate<\/a> GOP not to go &ldquo;too crazy&rdquo; on any reductions to the spending in his &ldquo;big, beautiful bill,&rdquo; as a 20-hour debate on the bill has begun.<\/p>\n<p>Trump, deeming himself a &ldquo;cost cutting Republican&rdquo; as well, even as his massive tax bill is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/senate\/3457559\/cbo-big-beautiful-bill-add-trillions-dollars-deficit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"projected\">projected<\/a> to raise the deficit by $3.3 trillion over the next decade, said any spending in the bill will be offset &ldquo;times 10&rdquo; with &ldquo;GROWTH.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div class=\"recommended-stories\">\n<h2>Recommended Stories<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/senate\/3457589\/senate-spars-current-policy-baseline-thune-schumer\/\">Senate spars over Trump agenda budget tactic as Democrats cry &#8216;hypocrisy&#8217;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/policy\/education\/3457604\/warner-slams-trump-administration-after-uva-president-ouster\/\">Warner slams Trump administration after UVA president ouster<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/senate\/3457535\/senate-clerks-reading-940-page-trump-big-beautiful-bill-schumer\/\">Senate clerks complete marathon reading of 940-page &#8216;one big, beautiful bill&#8217; after Schumer demand<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"article-paywall\">\n<p>&ldquo;For all cost cutting Republicans, of which I am one, REMEMBER, you still have to get reelected.
