Steve Forbes calls for policy changes from both parties to reduce ‘bloated’ government spending: ‘Sinful’

Forbes Chairman Steve Forbes reacts to the President slamming Republicans for criticizing his “big” spending on “Varney & Co.”

Forbes Chairman Steve Forbes on Monday urged Republicans to spend as much as Democrats, saying “Varney & Co.” The American people want bipartisan policies to reduce “bloated” government spending ahead of the midterm elections in November.

Steve Forbes: She [Democrats] and because the deficit is going down because of inflation, it’s putting people in a higher tax bracket, and they’re not spending quite as much as they were during the COVID lockdowns, hey [Biden] thinks that makes them non-donors. You spend. The numbers are there. Unfortunately, the only area where they don’t spend is on national defence, where we in Europe and the Pacific have a very, very real need; We’re running low on gun supplies, and this guy doesn’t realize it. So unfortunately with him, just take the opposite of what he says is unfortunately the truth. They are big donors.

TRUMP-OMB CHIEF REARS BIDEN’S SPENDING TO HARD FED’S FIGHT AGAINST INFLATION: ‘THIS PROBLEM WILL NOT GO GOING AWAY’

Her [Republicans’] The only virtue is to say, “We’re not as frugal as the Democrats.” They’re still sinful, small sins, but they still sin. That’s why I think Americans want real change after November. They want to see real policy to reduce that bloated spending, but alas, what Republicans have done with this so-called CHIPS bill and the so-called infrastructure bill shows that when there’s pork in the air, the smell is enticing even to supposedly conservative Republicans .

Forbes chairman Steve Forbes argued the president is not addressing America’s “very real” national defense needs at “Varney & Co.”
