Biden should just declare the debt limit unconstitutional and ignore it.

Appropriations are laws too. If it’s impossible to execute both laws the president has to choose which one to respect. And the 14th amendment says the debt can’t be repudiated. Should he let all the laws but one go unexecuted and the government itself go to pieces lest the debt limit be violated?

Why not? who’s going to stop him?
