I won't be holding my breath for the first spending cut to be supported by both sides.
This is why I've said we should just assume that ever dollar spent is worthwhile, and then cut everything across the board by 20% no matter what. We won't argue that any spending is a waste. We will only argue that we don't have enough money for all this amazingly worthwhile spending we are doing. And, we don't. So, it is an easy argument to make.
