Dunno, although I guess if the house could raise the debt limit for the amount required to pay the social security checks and authorize it, then perhaps the ball would be back in Barry’s court.
Yeah, the House would have to increase the debt limit by the amount needed to pay social security checks and include language stating that all additional borrowing has to be used only to pay for social security, and can’t be used to pay for the massively expensive, sprawling bureaucracies that fill the area inside the Washington beltway. So in other words the extra borrowing would have to be used to pay social security checks so that old folks aren’t going hungry, but can’t be used to pay $160K salaries for useless administrators employed in worthless activity at the Education Dept.
That will send the ball back into Obama’s court and he’d have to use the money for social security checks. If he didn’t use the funds for social security, then Boehner and McConnell and the entire GOP could destroy him rhetorically and possibly even being impeachment proceedings again Zero for high crimes against retired Americans. The MSM would have to cover an impeachment vote—that’s too big of an event even for those liars to ignore.
