Cenk Uygur talks with Grace Wyler, politics editor at Business Insider, about why the Republicans compromised on the 2013 debt ceiling debate without a fight. Wyler says, “I think this is a big reflection of the post-election landscape. Republicans realize that they are at a disadvantage, that their message hasn’t been working.” But Cenk disagrees, saying, “I think what it is, is that their bosses in corporate America said, ‘No, no, no. Debt ceiling is sacrosanct. … You can mess with government and Social Security payments and payments to soldiers anytime you like, but you’re not going to mess with our bonds.’”
