22. Creeksneakers2 is right about this
It is a mighty stretch of the 14th to say that the President can execute an executive order to raise the debt ceiling. Sure, he can do it and let it go to the courts but they would rightly overturn his executive order. Congress is the body that MUST do this. From a political angle we just have to scream long and hard that it was congress, not the president, that didn't do their job.
