I think McConnell here is telling Dems to just do it themselves via reconciliation whenever the Dems finally get their shit together…
Democrats do not get to ram through radical, far-left policies on party-line votes, brag about how they are transforming the country, but then demand bipartisan cover for racking up historic debt.

As I've said since July, they will need to address the debt limit themselves.
Explainer:
“leaving Democrats 10 votes short of the 60-vote threshold they’d need to raise the ceiling under normal Senate rules."
Can Democrats raise the debt ceiling alone and avert a market meltdown? https://t.co/FHO3Wskiws

The Biden administration is such a disaster, that I'm actually hopeful that a politically instigated default is possible.
