Debt Ceiling Countdown: An Explainer

Here we go...again?

Price St. Clair walks us through the ongoing debt ceiling fight in an interview with Ben Ritz, Director of the Center for Funding America’s Future at the Progressive Policy Institute. The two discuss the nuances of the issue, including:

-Throwbacks to 2011

-Trump’s lack of “caps”

-Likely (and worst case) scenarios

-Republicans pulling levers to get wins?
