Calling for Biden to negotiate with House Republicans demanding surrender has nothing to do with genuine bipartisanship.
So at this stage of the very dangerous game House Republicans are playing on the debt limit, Democrats echoing McCarthy’s demand for negotiations on his terms are doing him an enormous favor. Everyone knows the Freedom Caucus is holding a gun to the Speaker’s head even as he seeks to place Biden, the Senate, and the U.S.
It would be particularly constructive if deal-seeking House Democrats demanded that McCarthy explicitly put the entire federal budget on the table — yes, including tax increases — before securing talks with the White House and/or Senate Democrats. If he won’t , then it will become clear that McCarthy’s idea of negotiation is simply surrendering. And that’s not bipartisanship.
