Durbin: I Was Just Posturing on Using Debt Ceiling for Leverage in 2017, McCarthy Is Being 'Dangerous'

On Monday's broadcast of "CNN News Central," Senate Majority Whip Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) criticized House Speaker Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) for his handling of the debt ceiling and defended his support of using the debt ceiling for leverage in 2017 by stating that "We make speeches, we posture," but "when you're talking about the Speaker and the president and the majority leader, you're really getting down to serious business."
