McConnell is not to be believed or trusted. Let us remember that it was his idea to increase the debt ceiing automatically. He’s in cahoots with Reid and Schumer.
The House should adjourn for the year. We would hear screams across Washington. We’re all told that we must act by December 31st. But the House reconvenes on January 4th. Let the tax cuts expire. And the unemploment extensions. Let the people get a good look at their paychecks (or lack of them) when the president is re-inaugurated.
I like that idea. Let the chips fall where they may and then come back in January and truly fix the broken mess that is the federal budget.
