  • US President-elect Donald Trump has criticised the 2023 debt ceiling extension, agreed by President Joe Biden and then-House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Trump called the move a "dumb political decision," asserting it failed to address the financial crisis and shifted responsibility to Republicans.

The article discusses former President Donald Trump's criticism of President Joe Biden's handling of the 2023 debt ceiling negotiations. Trump labeled Biden's agreement with House Speaker Kevin McCarthy to raise the debt ceiling as "the dumbest political move in years." He argued that the deal, which suspended the debt limit until January 2025, was a significant political misstep by Biden, especially since it was perceived as a concession to Republican demands. Trump's comments were made during a speech at the Faith & Freedom Coalition's conference, where he also attacked Biden's economic policies, claiming they would lead to a default on the national debt. This critique comes amidst ongoing political debates about fiscal responsibility and government spending, with Trump using the opportunity to undermine Biden's leadership and economic strategy.
