Ehhhh....REALLY?

What about the old need for spending cuts in exchange for raising it like Republicans insisted MUST be done these past eight years?

What happened??? Did Repubs change philosophy?

They are such hypocrites....always saying we need to need to lower the debt ceiling...until they get in power, then it's all

McConnell doesn't have a problem raising the debt ceiling. He was the same way 2 years ago. Nothing new for him.
He also doesn't represent conservatives.

He doesn't though... You don't know anything about conservatives if you think the establishment types like McConnell, Ryan, McCain, etc.. are representatives of conservatives. Those idiots are the ones we were angered at over the last 8 years who did NOTHING when Obama was urinating all over the Constitution.

They are going to need to raise the debt ceiling big time next year, those small cuts to NOAA, EPA are not going to come close to covering increases in defense spending and entitlements. The new tax plan will absolutely kill the budget, so where are the spending cuts.
