If Trump had tried this the stupid bimbos at CNN and MSNBC would be screaming bloody murder and stomping their little private school feet.

Private school feet? Yes, these are the ‘women’ who got their jobs because ‘daddy’ is rich and has powerful friends.

Democrats number 1 priority is Party first. They are hell bent on transforming America into a dictatorial regime with their party at the helm. Think of California on a national scale.

This purported 14th Amendment loophole would reduce the separation of powers doctrine to junk bond status.

If Biden and his thus were able to pull this off, it would make the coup by 'FBI/intelligence' look like nothing...

Any Treasury debt issued by Biden’s order is likely to be found unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.

Republicans in the House will not vote to pay on unconstitutional debt.

Even if Republicans lose their House majority, there are lots of Democrats in the House that would love to stiff rich ‘white’ financiers.

“Obviously, these are not Nike-wearing cultists, but that only makes their actions all the more inexplicable. These are rational leaders whose desire to nullify their own existence would have seemed entirely implausible to the Framers.”

First mistake. These aren’t rational leaders.

“the debt limit”

The “limit” does not apply to the debt due amount, which will continue to mount even after default.

The rats are giddy with power. They have stolen two national elections and they are empowered to follow only their lust for more power!

In theory, Theory and Practice are the same.
In practice, they are very different.

In theory, we are a republic — a nation of laws.
In practice, we are neither.

Truth is that most politicians are already non entities.
They just vote the party line and repeat the partisan talking points.
and then somehow, end up millionaires

It’s not Heaven’s Gate, it’s Stalin’s Congress of the Communist Party. They just want the Vozhd to make the decisions, so that they can smile, applaud loudly, take their money and go to their dachas.

Biden is the emperor king. If the GOP ever won again, some judge or bureaucrat would overrule anything the president tried to do, and the media would call it “controversial” and produce smear polls. Libs are one big happy family.

Maybe not, but Bernard Sanders did what few other Americans did: he honeymooned in the country run by the most anti-American government in existence: the Soviet Union.

Ryan gave them 2018. He “retired” . And brought some 28 other senior Republicans to quit as well. That gave Nancy the House.
