Republicans Refuse to Negotiate With "The Hostage"

[Nostra]

That’s not what you said when Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats passed and that ceiling bill in 2019. You cheered on Trump putting all those civil servants out of work. It cost the economy $50 billion in cut your GDP for that quarter to less than 1% but hey Trump showed the Libs.

Then Trump gave it up without getting anything in return. One of the weakest displays ever in a negotiating session by an American president.

I did?

Link?

Unlike you I can always back up my claims. Always.

Congratulations. This is a real red letter day for you. But my poll says exactly the opposite in your pool is from CNN.

Silly bitches???

Cynical EVIL bitches

Look who is talking.

60% of Americans agree with Republicans that spending cuts must be included with raising the debt ceiling.

This is like the old "cut waste, fraud and abuse" idea. Everybody is in favor of cutting waste, but nobody knows how.

It is telling that an administration that was put in place via a coup would use the word hostages.

The only coup that took place, was a failed attempt by the outgoing loser in the federal election, to overthrow the legal election of Joe Biden, as President of the United States.

There is a small cult of brainwashed fools who continue to believe that Joe Biden didn’t win the election.

sane, rational people just consider them to be sad and pathetic, and living in an alternative reality.

This makes total sense. Biden will welcome a default. He needs another scapegoat. Watch.

So...what's it like to be a hostage to the GOP?

 

[Rawley]

Funny. Neither you nor any conservatives said so THEN

I did.

As many have already pointed out, which you want to ignore, the Republicans in the House are the only ones doing their job on this. They passed a bill a month ago that increases the debt limit and cuts back spending. That's what you are supposed to do when you max out your credit. Schumer hasn't even voted on it and Biden said he would veto it anyway. The Dems are just stamping their feet demanding a bigger debt limit so they can spend more.

It doesn’t work that way. You pay your bills (raise the debt ceiling) and THEN. Work out a budget that works better.

Apparently Chicom Joe isn’t in favor of it.

Gaetz is saying the quiet part out loud.

Republicans consider the economy (and the American people) as their hostage

House Republicans Pretty Much Admit They Are Taking Debt Limit ‘Hostage’

Rep. Matt Gaetz used the “h-word,” but Speaker Kevin McCarthy and negotiators also said Democrats should be happy with getting little else out of the talks.

You blithering idiot, you say the house is responsible for raising the debt ceiling, so they come up with a bill, and you whiny ass liberals want a talking point, by saying raise taxes on the rich. He is Talking about Biden being the Hostage, he can negotiate or suck it. Also the Democrats also know that even if they do raise taxes on the rich corporations it will simply be passed on to the consumer and cause inflation, costing the corporations nothing

My god you're a moron.

Your finances must be a fucking mess

Your finances must be a fucking mess

You are the one that thinks you address financial trouble by asking your credit card company to raise your limit.
