Who's Fault Is The Debt Ceiling Crisis?

[Votto]

I don't think so. Not this time.

The media holds the narrative every single time

And the public are their sheep.

 

[Independentthinker]

You mean like when Obama came to the table with John Boehner and permitted many of the cuts the GOP was demanding at the time?

Again, I don't know if it's just that you're hopelessly clueless; or incredibly disingenuous - but pretty much everything you say is always wrong.

It's not wrong in his mind, just wrong in reality.

Ever since the Trump tax cuts, revenues have increased

A one year spike

 

[Independentthinker]

who cares what the vote count was, it passed

everything that the demafasict don’t want is a poison pill. that’s the problem. they refuse to govern, they just want their tyrannical destructive agenda

It's simple. You buy as many votes as you can by handouts to everyone and all you ask for in return is their vote so that you can get even more freebies.

Revenue has gone up every year, not just one.

Ever since before Trump's tax cuts revenues had increased

Just like your beloved party does.

The GOP has offered up a very FISCALLY RESPONSIBLE plan that puts extremely necessary spending limits on the govt and calls for much-needed SPENDING CUTS.

IF only they had thought to do this when they controlled the House, the Senate and the White House

 

[Independentthinker]

So, if I understand you correctly, you're saying the Trump tax cuts did not bring in less revenue as the left claim.

As I said, the past is moot, the only one who can do anything now is Biden, and he has made it clear he is rejecting fiscal responsibility and anything other than a blank check so he and Democrats can spend, spend, spend.

You know a snowflake is attempting to blame-shift when he looks back to blame the nearest past Republican and refuses to address the current Democrat in charge with the power to do something.

Dems never pretend to be fiscally sound, they are who they are. It is why I do not vote for them.

Repubs pretend to be fiscally sound even though they never are when they are in power. Yet you will vote for them till the day you die because they pretend to try when they have no power.

Revenue has gone up every year, not just one.

Show me the numbers from 2020

 

[candycorn]

Thanks for your surrender.

Surrender? I pointed out that when the GOP came into power, we had this debt ceiling impasse. When they were not in power. we didn't.

It's about time you guys accepted facts.

Trump lost. There was no sizable voter fraud. 1/6 was an insurrection attempt.

Are you ready to accept facts?

PS; 306>232...fact.

 

[candycorn]

um the GOP passed a debt ceiling bill weeks ago...so no.

LOL... perhaps they should pass one that pays the nations bills without pushing us back into the dark ages.

 

[Marener]

Revenue has gone up every year, not just one.

It would have gone up more if he hadn’t cut taxes.

A POLITICO/Morning Consult poll from late February underscored the volatility of the situation — and the current disincentive for either party to cave: Asked whom they would blame if the U.S. defaulted, a plurality of voters, 37 percent, said they’d hold both parties equally responsible. Another 30 percent said Democrats would be most to blame, while 24 percent said the GOP would be.

A debt limit fight helped Democrats in 2011. This time, it’s no guarantee.

An impasse could hurt Biden if it supplants more Democratic-friendly issues like abortion in the news.

IMF calls for US to raise debt ceiling and cut spending

The International Monetary Fund calls on US politicians to agree a "comprehensive solution" to raise the debt ceiling.

Democrats fear political blowback for Biden if debt limit isn't raised

The worst-case scenario would be “a catastrophic political consequence that almost dictates the outcome of the 2024 election,” said a senior Democratic aide.

Dems Wants Biden to Negotiate Debt Ceiling After GOP-Led Bill Passed

Two House Democrats are urging Joe Biden to negotiate with Kevin McCarthy on the debt ceiling following passage of the House GOP-Led bill.

www.breitbart.com

So, what cards are Biden holding in his hands in this poker game?

Well let's see here. Did the Dems hate Trump? Did the Dems allow our nation to default on our debt under Trump. Have the Dems ever allowed our nation to default on the Debt ceiling? It's the retard repugs fault.

When Trump was president they said it was the presidents responsibility to meet with congress... now its the opposite....

 

[Rambunctious]

It would have gone up more if he hadn’t cut taxes.

Higher tax rates does not bring in more money to the treasury... tax and regulation cuts do that... its been proven over and over again....

I know that’s what you’re told to believe, but it’s not true.

Try being responsible like the Democrats under Trump and pay the bills! what a bunch of crap. the Republicans just love risking the national and world economy for politics....
