Trump Threatens Republicans Over Debt Ceiling Limit Handling

Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump campaigns in New Hampshire

President-elect Donald Trump issued a warning in a recent post on Truth Social, stating that any Republican who addresses the debt ceiling limit before his inauguration will face consequences. Trump emphasized the importance of fully negotiating and resolving the issue before his assumption of office on January 20th, 2025.

In his post, Trump expressed concern about the potential impact of passing a clean Continuing Resolution without Democratic input, referring to it as 'destructive' to the country. He argued that such a move would only serve to transfer the burden of dealing with the Debt Limit issue from the Biden Administration to his own administration.
