The idea to permanently remove the requirement that Congress repeatedly raise the nation's borrowing limit is opposed by many Republicans, including House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., who see the imposition of a debt limit as a check on government spending. 

Of course it is opposed by Republicans. For the past 20 years they have been using that requirement to blackmail this country. "Do what we want or we will shut down the government!", has been their rallying cry.

It is interesting that the day that Trump JR. talks to congressional committee behind closed doors his father starts to cooperate with Dems. and begins to sound somewhat reasonable. Wonder what was said behind those doors??????????
