SEAN HANNITY (HOST): So it's the people that are now behind the eight-ball here. That would be the Democratic Party led by Joe Biden, who decided that Republicans could never get this deal done. He waited 97 days. Now they're trying to hit the panic button and scare the crap out of the American people.
For Republicans, I would not be scared. I wouldn't be scared at all. I'd be like, "We gave you a debt ceiling increase. If you don't want it, then you will be the one responsible for the default." Because they -- there's not going to be enough Republican senators that would allow a Democratic bill that's going to allow this to go to conference at this last hour. And if they did, they'd be pretty stupid to do that.
