Raise the debt limit cleanly

Speaker McCarthy and MAGA Republican terrorist are trying to hold America's and the World economy hostage. This after they rubber stamped Trumps tax guveaway to the top 1% that exploded the debt more tben anyone else in US history. . Republicans need to pay the bills they have racked up!

Democrats cleanly Raise the debt three times under Trump. Also the righteous Biden has lowered the debt in just 2 years then most have in four or eight years.

If it really turns out to be as simple as invoking the 14th amendment and ending these debt ceiling dramas forever, Biden should have his ass kicked for cutting short a trip to Asia, and making the US once again look like an unreliable partner to Asian countries, which naturally writes a propaganda narrative that China will love to milk

Obama did the same thing a decade ago, which does not help US goals in an area of the world where autocratic China wants to dominate

Hopefully the progressive Democrat wing is right, and the 14th amendment is the permanent solution that ends this GQP hostage theater forever, but how do you force the old man to fucking do it NOW? Yes, it may need to be litigated, up to SCOTUS, but for FFS why did he never even consider this, when the same thing happened ten years ago when was VP?!?!?! It is time for being proactive, not reactive.
