Are Republicans actually about to win a political messaging battle? Such would certainly be shocking given the party’s track record, but that’s the story of a new Associated Press poll that is just brutal for the democrat communist/globalist narrative on the debt ceiling fight.
This from redstate.com.
According to the results of the AP-NORC poll:
[A] whopping 63 percent of Americans want a debt ceiling deal that includes measures to decrease the federal deficit. That compares to just 19 percent who want a debt ceiling increase to be passed without any conditions.
Twenty-one percent of adults are following the debate over increasing the national debt limit closely and another 38% are following it somewhat closely. Similar numbers feel they understand the debate extremely or very well (20%) or somewhat well (41%).
Nineteen percent of the public think the debt limit should be increased without conditions, while 63% want terms on reducing the federal budget deficit included with any debt limit increase. Democrats are more likely than Republicans to support increasing the debit limit without any condition.
The communists/globalists have been banking on the idea that Americans are going to blame Republicans for a possible default no matter what.
That is exactly what has happened in the past, especially with government shutdown fights, with the mass propaganda media flip-flopping its position depending on who is in power.
If a Republican is president, shutdowns are always the president’s fault. If a [Leftist] is president, shutdowns are always Congress’ fault.
But finally, the appearance is most Americans have had enough of being played. Communists/Globalists are out there pushing ridiculous ideas like using the 14th Amendment or minting a $1 trillion coin to pay the nation’s debt. But why do that when the vast majority simply want a deal with spending cuts attached? Especially when both of the former moves would likely be found to be illegal.
Conservatives must give House Speaker McCarthy at least partial credit. He made concessions to the MAGA Republicans for their votes which enabled him to assume the Speakership and so far, he has delivered.
Almost no one thought McCarthy could unite the Republican caucus to pass a debt ceiling bill. In fact, Senate Minority Leader China Mitch was so certain McCarthy would fail, he joined hands with the Left to pass a lame-duck omnibus bill. He was betting against the new majority’s ability to govern. And again, China Mitch was wrong.
A final note on the White House resident, Joe-Joe Biden is continuing to do what he has done his entire failed public career, which is to grossly miscalculate. He thought he could simply point fingers and have the colluding mass propaganda media do his bidding, but Americans aren’t buying any longer what Joe-Joe and his crime syndicate are selling.
With the deadline just a few days away—June 1, 2023—there is no real time to change public opinion either. The communists/globalists have a very simple choice to make. Either they drive the nation off a fiscal cliff and take the blame, or they offer some modest concessions and work a deal. For the first time in a long time, Republicans look to have outmaneuvered their opposition.
A huge gesture of gratitude to the MAGA Republicans. Thank you.
