You can inhale that dust if you like, but cutting spending will entail making laws to restructure government operations. Making political waves out of the debt ceiling is a way to get votes and funds from simple people.The Debt Ceiling is the Pie in the Sky with unlimited borrowing paid back by pixie dust............I think he's being obtuse about this. The debt ceiling has branding power with rebel republicans.
Seriously?
As in, he's purposely being dumb to attract RWNJs who don't know what the debt ceiling is?
I doubt it. More likely he doesn't know either.
But yes, his ignorance does appeal to some.
The Debt Ceiling is a tool to try and reverse course on our enormous debt...................To FIND CUTS to stop having to borrow...........
Obama's initial budget proposes an added $74 billion in spending, Cornyn dismisses it as 'happy talk'
Yet he asks to increase spending by 74 Billion..................
