Warren: Debt Ceiling Crisis Wouldn't Even Exist Without Trump Tax Overhaul

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

40% : Even though the huge deficits in government funding have been caused in large part by Republican policies, the party is using its control of the House to threaten a debt default, which would spell disaster for the economy, unless their demands are met; some Republicans are planning to use the debt ceiling to force through cuts to crucial programs like Social Security, for instance.
37% : And recently, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy lined up a vote on an extremist bill that would abolish the IRS and federal income taxes and implement a 30 percent sales tax, which would have hugely disproportionate effects on the working class while handing a colossal tax break for corporations and the rich.
15% : "If there are cuts to Social Security that they can turn around then and blame on the Democrats, if the economy goes over a cliff, if the worldwide economy blows up," said Warren.
