McConnell: Can’t Imagine a Clean Debt Ceiling

Echoing Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell said today that he expects another round of hostage taking shortly after the new year.

The Kentucky Republican said “I doubt” many GOP members in the House or Senate would agree to lifting the country’s borrowing authority without conditions attached.

“I can’t imagine it being done clean,” he said.

The Republican party may have let the government shutdown hostage go, but they still have the debt ceiling hostage.

I don’t believe their next attempt at extortion will be any more successful than their last, however I’m all for letting them think and say that it will be. Show America what your priorities are. You’re doing great.
