Repugnicans only care about the debt limit when they can weaponize it to further their own agenda.

And they don't give two shits when you point it out to them. It all fits into their "fuck you, got mine," mentality.

Trump supporters don’t actually care about the debt ceiling or what the stock market is doing so as long as they can make fun of everyone else they are perfectly happy with destroying everything just to own the libs…

And it may actually be a problem this time. The US reputation has been trashed and the only reason we could afford all of that debt was based on other countries buying our debt and the global reliance on the US dollar.

That's all coming to an end.
