This game is too accurate. 

Clicker games are always fun. I like getting all the upgrades, but the congress bills appear waaaay too slowly. Most of the game is just waiting for the button to show up while I already have the best upgrades I can buy with the current bond limit. The game could also use some sort of music or something. But looking past that, it was still pretty fun.

What an incredibly good and funny concept (the only clicker game I'll ever play), I do wish progression through the game was more clear, and the volume of the executive orders had some visual showcase, but overall pretty polished and a good time

This is one of the most creative and enjoyable games in the jam. However, the UI is too much at the beginning. Maybe a tutorial will help? Also, I recommend you have it as an endless game: The limit will exponentially grow forever. But well done!

The idea is so original, I liked a lot the game [After playing for to long it got a little boring]

I think the concept is funny, and I thoroughly enjoyed playing. There can sometimes be a bit much time between congressional bills, but it is still very enjoyable -- I'm really glad I got to play it!

Good job getting it done in just 48 hours!

An interesting concept. With a bit more polish you could have something funny. Nice job.

It was a lot of fun watching the number get lower! It seemed like some sections were missing because I couldn't progress past a point, which was disappointing, but my disappointment shows you made a fun game! Cool take on the theme and good clicker design!
