eviscerated fellow Republicans on Monday for striking a “totally inadequate” debt-ceiling deal he claims has the U.S. “careening toward bankruptcy.” DeSantis took issue with the “massive amount of spending” that’s been proposed to raise the federal debt ceiling, saying “$4 trillion of increases”—an estimation on how much would be added to the nation’s $31 trillion debt—is too much. DeSantis said the U.S.
has been on a trajectory of more federal spending since the pandemic—a cycle that’s not sustainable for the country in the long term. The deal, spearheaded by Rep. Kevin McCarthy , has split the GOP, with allies arguing the deal gave few concessions to Democrats, while others have threatened to withhold their vote because enough spending wasn’t cut.
