Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.) said he is “very frustrated” over the state of debt ceiling talks and questioned why President Biden is continuing to negotiate with what the congressman called “economic terrorists” in the Republican party.
“I called on the president to invoke the 14th Amendment and mint a coin and do not negotiate with hostage takers,” Bowman told CNN’s Manu Raju on Thursday. “I mean, we don’t negotiate with terrorists globally.

Don’t negotiate. Use the money you have to pay the interest, military, and let the rest go.
The economy is going to tank anyway, and the government is out of control, might as well crash it now and move on.
Stupid, ignorant, childish, trashy. Implications: 1) His district voters elected him because he represents them perfectly. 2) CNN chose him as the best spokesman for the Dems’ economic and tax agenda.
Jamal sounds worried he might lose his vote buying funds.
I kinda want to see Biden fall for this 14th Amendment interpretation. I think it is entirely indefensible and will be struck down by SCOTUS. Since the rejection of his pre-election student loan relief gambit is coming soon (by the end of June, at latest.) He will be 0-2.
