Trump Threatens to Primary Republicans Over Clean CR Without Debt Ceiling Increase Before January 20th, 2025
Dec 18, 2024, 11:52 PM
Former President Donald Trump has issued a stern warning to Republican lawmakers, threatening to support primary challenges against any who vote in favor of a clean continuing resolution (CR) without an increase in the debt ceiling. Trump's statement emphasizes that all spending negotiations and debt ceiling issues should be resolved before his inauguration on January 20, 2025. He criticized the potential for such a bill to shift the debt ceiling problem into his administration, labeling it as 'stupid' and politically damaging. Trump's remarks come amid discussions on a continuing resolution proposed by House Speaker Mike Johnson to fund the government and avoid a shutdown scheduled for December 21.
