STEVE MOORE: I think Republicans -- this is getting into this issue of the debt ceiling, which is going to come up in the next couple weeks. And I think the Republicans are making a big mistake if they simply capitulate to President Obama and give him a clean debt ceiling without any kind of restructuring of the debt or restructuring of spending. I mean, they should be listening to what the people are saying, what the conservative voters around the country are saying. It's why we have a Trump phenomenon. People are angry, they're cranky. They feel that the fiscal situation is out of control, and to give the government just another blank check I think is bad politics and bad policy.
