Good morning, I'm Nathan Hagar and I'm Cameron Moscow. 20 00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 1: Here are the stories we're following today. Let's start in 21 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:16,680 Speaker 1: Washington this morning, where a dispute could have market implications 22 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:19,560 Speaker 1: over the next several months. The US has reached its 23 00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: debt ceiling and now the Treasury departments stepping into retirement 24 00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: funds to avoid a default.

And 31 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: there has to be some discipline and there has to 32 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,400 Speaker 1: be some sacrifice. Senator Mansion spoke with Bloomberg's David Weston 33 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: from the World Economic Forum in Davos, but his plan 34 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,320 Speaker 1: is unlikely to fly in a deeply divided Congress.

The lifting or suspension of the debt ceiling 39 00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:14,239 Speaker 1: with spending is a non starter.

Trust Hank 53 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,360 Speaker 1: Smith says a key thing to watch today is the 54 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: mass expiration of options.

Nationwide on Sirius x AMP, the Bloomberg Business app, 199 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 1: and Bloomberg dot Com. This is Bloomberg Daybreak. Good morning. 200 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,280 Speaker 1: I'm Nathan Hager, and we want to take you back 201 00:10:57,320 --> 00:10:59,720 Speaker 1: to Davos now to bring you our interview with Senator 202 00:10:59,800 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: Joe o Manship, the Democrat from West Virginia. He spoke 203 00:11:02,679 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: with Bloomberg's David weston about his call for a bipartisan 204 00:11:06,240 --> 00:11:09,240 Speaker 1: solution to avert a government default that threatens to jolt 205 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: global markets. Man should also addressed questions about his plans 206 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,920 Speaker 1: for re election next year. Let's listen into that conversation. Now, 207 00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:20,800 Speaker 1: we will pay our debts. We always have, We always will. 208 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,079 Speaker 1: How mess is going to get getting from point A 209 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,040 Speaker 1: to point B, we don't know yet. But I'd like 210 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:29,760 Speaker 1: to see really truly a coalition of a bipartisan bicameral 211 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 1: Democrats and Republicans putting a group together that says we're 212 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 1: gonna look at all the trust funds to find out 213 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,000 Speaker 1: the deficiencies when they're going to be insolvent and what 214 00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 1: we can do to prevent that, and then basically have 215 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 1: a piece of legislation that we're saying, Okay, we will 216 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 1: make this deal, will raise the debt setting if you 217 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,120 Speaker 1: allow us to have give the American public a look 218 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 1: at what we're dealing with and recommendations will make and 219 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 1: have a vote on the floor whether it goes up 220 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,640 Speaker 1: or not. But at least it identifies it's serious. And 221 00:11:57,679 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: the same thing with the thirty one plus trillion dollars 222 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 1: of debt. So that sounds a little bit like some 223 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: commissions we've seen in the past, like base closings and 224 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:07,840 Speaker 1: on Social Security. Where are you on that? Are you 225 00:12:07,840 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 1: starting to put that together the prospect. I'm just strolling 226 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,400 Speaker 1: it out to make people. My dear friend Mitt Romney 227 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: has been working on the Trust Act. I joined him 228 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 1: on that. I think it's it's tremendous to identify that 229 00:12:18,240 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 1: we've got social Security and Medicare, we got the Highway trust. 230 00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:23,679 Speaker 1: He's been very good leading that, And we talked about 231 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 1: remember the old uh the bowls Simpson, let's look at 232 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,600 Speaker 1: a hybrid of something that we're gonna have to agree 233 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: that we have a tremendous amount of debt that we're 234 00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: writing checks our kids can't cash. So if you want 235 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:39,800 Speaker 1: to have concerns about should we or should we not, 236 00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,640 Speaker 1: absolutely we should. We should pay our debts. Should we 237 00:12:42,640 --> 00:12:44,959 Speaker 1: allow him to grow disproportionately to where we have more 238 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: trouble every year? Coming to that conclusion to pay the 239 00:12:47,440 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: debts when we could have done something Kevin McCarthy is 240 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: a wonderful opportunity for him to say, listen, let's act 241 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,319 Speaker 1: like adults. We've got a debt. Whose foot fault? We're 242 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,960 Speaker 1: all at fault. How do we fix it together and 243 00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: move forward? Well, that sounds like eminently good sense to me. 244 00:13:00,559 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 1: Do you have time because we've heard from Janiellary already 245 00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 1: she's taking extraordinary measures. There's a speculation about June July 246 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 1: we're gonna actually run out of the money. Do you 247 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 1: have time to get all that accomplisutions described before. We're 248 00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:13,679 Speaker 1: not talking about bills. We're talking about basically a framework 249 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: to bring a bill to the floor within a ninety 250 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 1: day period. If we agree, yes, we're gonna do. Target 251 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 1: that we're talking of the trust. Make sure that we 252 00:13:21,240 --> 00:13:24,160 Speaker 1: know what we're dealing with. We're gonna target basically the 253 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 1: debt and increasing of the debt to how we can 254 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 1: basically prevent that from continue to increase as it does 255 00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 1: and started downward trend. And there has to be some 256 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:34,960 Speaker 1: discipline and there has to be some sacrifice. What about 257 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: strings attached to an increase in the debt? Selling along 258 00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 1: lines you're saying, say that we don't have time to 259 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: get all the work done, get all the approvals through, 260 00:13:41,920 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: but we want a commitment that we're going to go 261 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 1: on the path you're describing right now. If you were increased, 262 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,160 Speaker 1: if you come here and says we're gonna cut military, 263 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna cut the Social Security in and all the 264 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: different safety things. You have to have your military for 265 00:13:53,240 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 1: the defense. We have an a geo political unrest. You're 266 00:13:55,920 --> 00:13:58,720 Speaker 1: not going to leave senior citizens who have worked and 267 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 1: paid into it stranded. So quick talking and scaring them 268 00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:05,440 Speaker 1: Jesus out of people. Find a path that works, and 269 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: you can't do it, just okay, here's we gotta do. 270 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,840 Speaker 1: If you do this, then I'll vote for If you 271 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,280 Speaker 1: don't do this, I'm gonna vote against it. I'm not 272 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 1: going to hold hostage. I want to get a reasonable 273 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: approach to find something that has long lasting and has results, 274 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 1: long lasting results. What about the White House? What the present? 275 00:14:22,360 --> 00:14:25,160 Speaker 1: But saying we're not gonna even negotiate, I'm not sure 276 00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:27,080 Speaker 1: how that works right now. What he's saying on negotiation, 277 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 1: he don't he's not. I don't blame it. Don't be 278 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,520 Speaker 1: held hostage. They shouldn't be held hostage. You can't help 279 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: You can't hold the good faith of the greatest economy 280 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:38,400 Speaker 1: in the world hostage by saying we're gonna destroy your 281 00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: credit ratings. But the rest of the world and how 282 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 1: they think about our country, how they investor buy our 283 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,800 Speaker 1: bonds and and and things of that sort, that that's 284 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 1: something that can happen. It was done in two thousand eleven, 285 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: two thou thirteen, it didn't work out. Well, why would 286 00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: they try to get But there's an awful lot of 287 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: leverage to do something very very constructive that will be productive. 288 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 1: There are others that are willing to join. I think 289 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:01,880 Speaker 1: there is, I there's there's there's a growing amount of 290 00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 1: people that would like to say, Okay, how do we 291 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 1: fix this. I don't know until I get Democrats and 292 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 1: Republicans who are like mine that put the country before 293 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,880 Speaker 1: the party. But if you're just thinking, well let me 294 00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: see if we don't fix this, I can blame you 295 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: for that. And if you're a d or and are, 296 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: you're blaming one side or the other. So you're not 297 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 1: looking for solutions. You're looking at basically create more chaos 298 00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: within the political and that's not what we need right now. 299 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: And I'm hoping that Kevin I'm I didn't tell Kevin 300 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:28,920 Speaker 1: McArthur right now, whatever I can do to help you 301 00:15:28,960 --> 00:15:32,160 Speaker 1: and work with you, I want you to succeed election. 302 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 1: You get the wild one Democrat. I really haven't made 303 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:42,320 Speaker 1: that decision. I really haven't. I'm I'm so engaged basically 304 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 1: in trying to bring this country together, to unite the 305 00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 1: country to where people aren't afraid to say, hey day, 306 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: that makes sense. I'm gonna work with you on that. 307 00:15:49,760 --> 00:15:52,040 Speaker 1: It might be a the opposite party. They're almost afraid 308 00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,280 Speaker 1: to have a conversation. It used to be it used 309 00:15:55,320 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: to be guilt by by association. Now it's guilt by conversation. 310 00:16:00,680 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: That's awful. So we've got it. We've got to bring 311 00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 1: this back.
