Clinton, Reagan, GW Bush, Nixon, LBJ, JFK, Truman, FDR |

all would have invoked the 14th Amendment by now. Anyone disagree?
And probably Ike and Bush I.

1. No way either of them would have invoked it until the very very last minute. |

But I have my doubts that any president would do it before it became a last resort.

The 14rh amendment is not meant to be used unless it is an absolute last resort to defend the country from collapse. We are still a week away. None of the presidents you listed would have invoked that amendment yet.
