Biden Backs Down on Debt Ceiling
[TOWNHALL] Speaking to news hounds after an event in New York Wednesday afternoon, President Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. SOld, boring, a plagiarist, fond of hair sniffing and grabbing the protruding parts of women, and not whatcha call brilliant... or is that an act?...
indicated he's willing to push aside his demands for a "clean" debt ceiling increase and negotiate spending cuts with politicians on Capitol Hill.

"Do you feel more optimistic about a deal today that you did yesterday?" a news hound asked.

"Sure," Biden responded, adding that he wants to look at specific spending cuts Democrats and Republicans can agree on.

The President also said would consider skipping his planned trip to the G7 next week in Japan in order to get a deal done. He met with congressional leadership, including House Speaker Kevin McCarthy
...the GOP house majority whip. He replaces Eric Cantor, who got whupped because his politix are like Kevin McCarthy's...
, at the White House Tuesday afternoon.

#1 Better to hide from the G7, Joe. Send Kamela to Japan.

#2 "Listen, [Joe], we really need to get the debt ceiling issue resolved. We can't be wasting our time over possible impeachment proceedings and those China connections now, right? So, whaddya say?"

#3 I think Joe is at the point where Wheel of Fortune is like Relativity to him.

#5 I think Joe is at the point where Wheel of Fortune is like Relativity to him.

Double dipping I know, but wondering if at this point a spin wheel, or even the whims of a dementia riddle ice cream pederast, would produce better results than The Agenda.

#6 Ask senior George "No New Taxes" Bush how that all works. You are not dealing with any honorable men or women (on both sides of the aisle).

#7 Going to the G-7 with the US in near default, the Fed Broke, and the Dollar collapsing as the world reserve currency, a shambles Jojo could not explain to the G-7 partners on his best day ever. So, look for ..."The President also said would consider skipping his planned trip to the G7 next week in Japan in order to get a deal done."

#8 McCarthy has a perfectly good reason to hold the FBI hostage in any debt ceiling negotiation.

#9 Would Senile Joe do better than the Obamist agenda? I wouldn’t think so; he has been on the wrong side of every policy debate his entire career. With Rice gone, I have heard that it is now the Clintonistas running the show. I don’t think there will be much difference.
