► Rep. Tom Cole (R-OK): Today’s “IHOP-Flip-Flop” Award Winner

 

During a recent (ca. May 2019) rant, Tommy decided to prove that he’s one of America’s Premier Flip

 

-Floppers when it comes to adding billions to the national debt. Tommy was giddy when he and his fellow Republican spendthrifts passed a $1.5 trillion tax cut aimed at corporations and billionaires/millionaires that will add trillions more to the national debt over the next ten years.

 

Now, let’s fast forward to May 2020 and see how Tommy feels about adding to the national debt. In this instance, Donald “Trumporleone” Trump made a proposal for a $2 trillion-dollar infrastructure bill. When Johnny the sham deficit hawk heard about it, he responded as follows to The Hill reporter Alexander Bolton.

  • “We know we can spend the money.”
  • “People will be delighted to spend the money on roads and bridges and inland waterways and ports and rural broadband, no problem.”
  • ‘But the part of the discussion that's lacking is, how are you going to pay for it?"

It is painfully clear that Tommy the Flip-Flopper is content to blow up the deficit if it rewards his campaign contributors such as large corporations, billionaires and millionaires. However, when it comes to infrastructure and creation of blue-collar jobs, Tommy becomes a deficit hawk.

 

And lastly, Tommy gives hypocrisy a bad name!
