Get with the program bozos
Firing squad for the hawks pls
It’s all just so stupid and disruptive, can’t blame Trump for not wanting this bullshit during his term
OFC it’s when Trump wants to do something that makes sense that the Republicans balk.

It’ll be interesting to see which way the thing breaks. One of the main differences between the Republicans and the Democrats has been the ability to whip votes, at least in recent memory.
I think it makes some sense for Dems to do it, debt ceiling is a (small) barrier to Trump’s plans.
And Trump has opportunistically used the same in the past too. Suspending it in 2018 (until 2019) and calling for a ceiling just before Brandon.
