"He has ignored us for 85 days," McCarthy said. "So I'm fearful if we get to that moment in time, it's very clear, one side, raise the debt ceiling so we wouldn't be in jeopardy. And another side has done nothing. So I don't know. I've encouraged the President to meet. I told him I'd get soft food, whatever it takes, we could sit down, we can meet together. He refuses. So he's putting our economy in jeopardy and I'm fearful that the American public will be very upset with him if he does it."
