The United States already reports a measure of GDP excluding government spending, called "Value Added by Private Industries (VAPI)". It currently accounts for 88.7% of US GDP and has steadily risen as a share of GDP since 2009, under both Obama and Biden as well as Trump: https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/VAPI https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/VAPGDPPI
