Brilliant plan by the GOP.
Are you being sarcastic?? The democrats will prevent either body from reaching the two thirds to prevent the debt ceiling from rising and even if they do, the president will veto it.
This is just a way for the Congress to not have to do what it knew it was going to do anyway but didn’t want to take the heat for.
Do you have a better idea, at least in terms of politics, for the GOP? This is the only way to hold Barry's feet to the fire and finally make him show his cards. He blew it today with his threat to withhold SS checks, and putting him in charge of the debt ceiling is the combo punch.
