The GOP plays politics with everything. They seem to want to tear everything down rather governing. It’s all hate and extremism all the time. And it could lead to miscalculation that would cause a default on the debt, leading to catastrophic results for the economy:

GOP is hypocritical and proud of it.
As Chuck Todd discussed the debt ceiling with Byron Donalds, he addressed Trump’s claim that if Republicans don’t get what they want, they “have to do a default,” and “It could be really bad, it could be maybe nothing. Maybe it’s a bad week or a bad day?”

That would never pass. Congress would allow the country to collapse before they gave up their perks and benefits.
🚨🚨🚨BREAKING: A bipartisan bill has been introduced that would block members of Congress from getting paid if the U.S. enters debt default or if the government shuts down.

Donald Trump has made his most extreme demand yet to Speaker Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans: to default on our national debt! If Speaker McCarthy and the House GOP refuse to raise the debt ceiling, President Biden should use the 14th Amendment to avert a debt default. pic.twitter.com/92LCy2iXYV

Yellen says: If Congress fails to raise the debt limit on time, it “really impairs our credit rating.” True — and terrible. She adds: “We [would then] have to default on some [debt] obligation.” False: See 14th Amendment, Section 4. Default is forbidden. https://t.co/ocm6DqgWkz

FACT CHECK: The leader of @SpeakerMcCarthy's party advocated for letting America default on it's debt to own the libs less than a week ago. #ThatsAFact pic.twitter.com/0jTwFVCRY8 https://t.co/gteP7ytTl7

Biden is now seriously considering using the 14th Amendment to raise the debt ceiling.

His concern is it won’t make it through the courts in time.
The Treasury says we are mere weeks from default. #wtpBLUE #wtpEARTH #ResistanceUnited #DemsAct https://t.co/U3eRuNg577
Do they plan on sabotaging the economy so that it will help them in the elections in 2024? Don’t put it past them. Republicans have been sabotaging America for some time now. This won’t be much more than they’ve been doing.
A little over a week to raise the debt ceiling or we default. Republicans and Trump are hoping for a default to send the economy into a recession https://t.co/yy4YCEFQjH

As the U.S. hurtles closer to a default on its debt as early as next month, the economic consequences could prove devastating, especially for millions who stand to lose their jobs. https://t.co/9Q0EGUCqhj

MAGA Republicans like @SpeakerMcCarthy don't care.
They will risk default on debt we already owe to protect tax cuts for billionaires. #RepublicanBudgetSabotage pic.twitter.com/LGBTftADM0
This is the most corrupt Republican Party in history. Speaker Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans' debt default plans put billionaires ahead of the middle class and working families. Speaker McCarthy and the House GOP don't care about women, children, veterans, or seniors. pic.twitter.com/AvjswA8gjJ

Donald Trump is a very dangerous man. On Truth Social and during the CNN town hall (which only had Trump supporters in the crowd), he recklessly proclaims that it's no big deal if we default on our national debt. Defaulting could plunge the global economy into a recession! pic.twitter.com/MLqcOHwghq

🎯Biden nails it. Republicans WANT default, to blame him for the catastrophe & hurt him in 2024 election.

It's the Benghazi GOP on steroids, abusing power to gain more power. But now hurting the Dem includes tanking the economy.
Everyone knows this yet pretends it's about debt. https://t.co/7fl0QWBlyz
“Trump called the debt ceiling 'a sacred element,' and now he says maybe default wouldn't be so bad. Unprecedented market fears say otherwise”
