President Trump Responds to Democrat Senate Parliamentarian’s Decision to Cut Key Provisions in ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ (VIDEO)

President Trump on Friday responded to the Senate Parliamentarian’s decision to cut key provisions in his ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’

Left-leaning Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough ruled that key GOP provisions in President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” violate the rules.

The Republicans are pushing President Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ through budget reconciliation because it will only need a simple majority to pass.

However, the Senate Parliamentarian has to approve of certain provisions in the bill otherwise they cannot pass with a simple majority vote.

Elizabeth MacDonough last weekend struck down several GOP provisions in the bill by applying the ‘Byrd Rule.’

MacDonough rejected:

• The federal government defunding sanctuary cities
• Defunding the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (DOGE targeted this agency)
• The EPA’s effort to roll back Electric Vehicle mandates
• A proposal to restrict federal courts from issuing nationwide injunctions

President Trump did not go scorched earth on Elizabeth MacDonough on Friday.

“The Parliamentarian has been a little difficult and I would say that I would disagree with the Parliamentarian on some things and other ways she’s been fine, but we’ll have to see. It’s a big issue,” Trump said without going into further detail about his disagreements with the Parliamentarian.

“If that bill doesn’t pass, the country will get a 68% tax increase,” Trump said.

Later Friday, President Trump said the Senate Republicans are working all weekend to finish the ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’

“The Great Republicans in the U.S. Senate are working all weekend to finish our “ONE, BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL.” We are on the precipice of delivering Massive General Tax Cuts, NO TAX ON TIPS, NO TAX ON OVERTIME, NO TAX ON SOCIAL SECURITY FOR OUR SENIORS, Permanently Securing our Borders, an even Bigger and More Powerful Military (I rebuilt it during my First Term, and it is already the Best, but we will make it BETTER!), unleashing our American Economy, dominating the Energy Market, creating Jobs, and getting money back to American Families. The House of Representatives must be ready to send it to my desk before July 4th — We can get it done. It will be a wonderful Celebration for our Country, which is right now, “The Hottest Country anywhere in the World” — And to think, just last year, we were a laughingstock. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” Trump said on Friday afternoon.
