Cruz claims Biden won’t negotiate with GOP on debt ceiling due to mental decline.

Sen. Ted Cruz Slams President Biden for Refusing to Negotiate with Republicans Amid Looming Debt Ceiling Crisis

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has criticized President Joe Biden for refusing to negotiate with Republican lawmakers as the country faces a looming debt ceiling crisis. Cruz believes that Biden won’t engage because he is too far mentally gone.

The Importance of Fiscal Reform

Cruz pointed out that in 2011, Republicans in the House stood strong on the debt ceiling because Democrats had the majority of Congress for two years and had passed trillions in irresponsible spending. Republicans stood strong and said, “We will not raise the debt ceiling without serious fiscal reform!”

Then Vice President Joe Biden negotiated a deal called the Budget Control Act, which was designed to cut $2.3 trillion in spending. It was the most significant federal spending reform in modern times. Biden sat down with House Republicans and reached a meaningful compromise.

The Need for Compromise

Cruz believes that President Joe Biden needs to do the same thing now. However, he thinks that the reason Biden hasn’t done so yet is that his mental faculties are too diminished right now to work together on a solution to the problems. Instead, a bunch of young staffers in the White House, whom Cruz calls “radical children,” are willing to risk a default on the debt because they have no appreciation of the chaos and misery and damage a default would do.

The Solution

Cruz emphasizes that we should not default on our debt, but the present path we’re on is unsustainable. Biden needs to come to the table and work together on a solution to the problems. Cruz sees it as a major victory for America that Biden finally blinked and said, “Okay, I’ll sit down and talk.” That’s the first step. Now the second step is to solve the problem.
