The GOP gambled that by holding the debt ceiling hike hostage they could gut Biden's Bills; they ended up with jack shit.
It's not lost on the rating agency either that the GOP doesn't give a flying f'k about raising the debt ceiling when a Republican is in the WH. THAT'S the 'bad governance'.

Fitch Ratings downgraded its US debt rating on Tuesday from the highest AAA rating to AA+, citing “a steady deterioration in standards of governance.”
