Republicans Refuse to Negotiate With "The Hostage"

[Hutch Starskey]

Referring to the bill on the debt limit and spending cuts that passed the House with only Republican votes, Gaetz said: “I think my conservative colleagues for the most part support Limit, Save, Grow & they don’t feel like we should negotiate with our hostage,” according to a reporter for Semafor.

At what point does deliberately undermining the American economy constitute sedition?

 

[Hutch Starskey]

How do you negotiate with HOSTAGE TAKERS??

As little as possible.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

It seems not. From what I've read it's pass what they already passed or nothing.

The problem is that McCarthy can’t give anything and still get the necessary Republican votes. He expects the Dems to both give concessions and then bail him out on the vote.

How does he expect that to happen?

Weakest speaker ever.

 

[Clipper]

Seek help soon.

You think McCarthy won't wreck the economy of this Country to help Trump after he ran down to MAL right after 1/6 & buried his face up Trump's ass in sorrow after blasting him for the coup attempt?

McCarthy is a Trump ass sucking spineless little weasel.

1. McCarthy already got a bill passed to raise the debt ceiling, Moron.

2. Seek help soon.

With hostage takers?

Gaetz gave up the came

Well, in that case, Biden should default.

 

[Lesh]

Well, in that case, Biden should default.

Wrong.

We should DEMAND that the GOP Congress pass a clean debt ceiling bill

 

[Nostra]

Wrong.

Biden did say that. Now they are negotiating and it's the hard right refusing to. It's political theater. Yes, they should have solved this months ago.

But re-elect them we will.

The Debt ceiling was considered a negotiating tactic before.

Even Trump said it was stupid to use it as a negotiating tool, it is the financial equivalent of negotiating with a sucide bomber in a small room.

GOP are threatening to blow up everything unless they get their way... They are relying on the Democrats sense of duty to negotiate...

Biden has a right to tell them to fuck of and send a clean bill or no one is passing it... Congress gets the blame, that's it...

 

[CowboyTed]

Biden isn’t even trying to negotiate. He can’t even speak coherently unless he is having a “good day”.

As Ted Cruz points out, his administration is run by a bunch of little Marxists that want a default.

Then send him a clean bill like congress has done before...

It is the GOP that is hold a gun to the baby's head...

 

[Independent thinker]

Yup.

Cynical politically motivated bastards

Is that your way of saying that you want out of control spending?

 

[Lesh]

Is that your way of saying that you want out of control spending?

It's my way of saying

DO NOT FUCK WITH OUR CREDIT RATING AND ECONOMIC HEALTH

 

[Mac-7]

It's my way of saying

DO NOT FUCK WITH OUR CREDIT RATING AND ECONOMIC HEALTH

Biden wants rising debt till our credit rating is junk

 

[Independent thinker]

It's my way of saying

DO NOT FUCK WITH OUR CREDIT RATING AND ECONOMIC HEALTH

No, it is your way of saying you want out of control spending.

The GOP passed a bill to raise the debt ceiling. Schumer and Biden need to get to work.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Wrong.

Meh. He's a budget hawk, right?
Biden should he happy to cut spending.

This drama rama is the same old shit every time the GOP is the minority, they are such silly bitches.

except this time a maj of voters are unhappy about inflation, which is caused by having "too much" money in circulation to allow all goods to be consumed at current or fallen prices.

The current COLA for SS 2024 is 3.1% which means inflation is lower.

Yes, they pumped a lot of cash in 2020 along with super low interest.
