Q And at what point will the White House and the Treasury Department and members of Democratic leadership chart a different path? At what point will it become clear whether you’re going to get 10 Republican votes or not?
MS. PSAKI: Well, we’re working on options now. You’ve obviously seen Leader Schumer look to move forward in a Dem- — with Democrats. We’re being blocked on that effort currently by Cong- — by Senator McConnell — I almost demoted him by accident — by Senator McConnell, by Senator Cruz and others.
And what’s so absurd about this is that these are individuals, especially Senator McConnell, who have made very clear in the past about their concerns and the risks of the U.S. government defaulting. This is why it’s never happened in the past. It would have a huge, devastating impact on our economy. He knows that. He’s stated that publicly.

If that’s not politics, I don’t know what is.
