GOP Economic Plan: Internal Divisions, Trillion-Dollar Debate | JQJO

The Republican Party is grappling with internal divisions over its economic agenda. A proposed $4.5 trillion tax cut package, paired with $1.5 trillion in spending cuts, is causing friction between traditional Republicans favoring lower taxes and smaller government, and a neo-populist wing aligned with Trump. Disagreements exist on key issues like Medicaid cuts, green energy investments, and the SALT deduction. House Speaker Mike Johnson faces a deadline to reconcile these conflicting priorities before the package advances, amidst concerns about rising national debt and market uncertainty.
