McConnell insists Democrats "name a number" as the limit for spending before they will "allow"

an extension until December. I have the number.

$7,800,000,000 ---7.8 trillion dollars. That will just cover the amount that tfg added to the national debt during his four year squat in the White House.

You DO want to pay your party's bills, don't you, Mitch?

How about they give him a number and make it clear the money the Federal government sends to Kentucy every year has been removed from upcoming budgets.

Kentucy is the 4th most dependent state, 38.5% of its state budget comes from those of us in (mainly) Blue states. It's time to cut them off & help Kentucky break its "cycle of dependency".

Basically eliminate the idea of a debt ceiling and make Republicans look like fucking fools if they want to try and use that in a campaign ad.

PS - That's a real number.
