Senate Democrats indicate they'll accept GOP debt ceiling offer: 'McConnell caved' McConnell said Republicans would allow Democratic leaders to extend debt ceiling through December https://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/senate-dems-accept-gop-debt-ceiling-offer-mcconnell
Republicans are stupid but Republican voters are stupider. This is all about a narrative. The Republican Party is nothing but an empty suit filled with false bloviating against a strawman. Democrats reckless spending - on what? This is still the Trump budget! They oppose raising the debt ceiling because democrats want to enact some legislation THAT DOESNT ADD TO THE DEBT? It’s all nonsense. Republican voters are to blame. They live for the WWE drama. False narratives motivate them. Mitch will fold and still not have a governing philosophy beyond being no idea stagnation pushing hack.
Maybe so, but the 1% plutocracy they represent is not stupid. It fully understands the threat of a disgruntled 99% becoming aligned by media, organizing dissent, and voting accordingly.
Lies. Raising the debt ceiling has nothing, zero, to do with the democrats reconciliation package. Reconciliation will be fully paid for, just like the affordable care act - which actually was a net savings on the budget. Debt is incurred from Republican presidents reckless tax cuts time after time.
So kick the can down the road, just like they did with government funding to avoid a shutdown. So now we have a double-whammy for December. Powell is prolly pulling the few remaining hairs out of his head regarding how he's going to keep the peace at the November FOMC meeting.
Right. It’s all smoke and mirrors on the right. They drive up misguided outrage based a false narrative. They make people think there is some kind of threat to them or their way of life when what we are really talking about is pre school and more home healthcare for the elderly. Socialism, Marxism ism ism ism. Republican voters in this decade may just be the most taken advantage of and manipulated voting block in American history.
If Republicans had their votes counted for real, Trump would be President with a Republican Senate and House. Why social engineer a political movement that wastes and fouls everything.
Whew, that was a close one. We are so very lucky our glorious leaders found a way for us to carry on, and we may be getting a shiney new trillion dollar coin which will have about as much true value as Congress does. The drama continues. Idiots.
