Former President Clinton said Monday that he’d use the 14th Amendment to raise the debt ceiling if he were still in charge.

Clinton said he would not hesitate to invoke the constitutional option “if it came to that” and a deal proved impossible to reach with Congress. The former president made the comments to The National Memo on Monday evening.
