Debating with myself whether to actually write up the billion and twelve reasons why if the President wants to ignore the debt ceiling he needs to mint the coin, rather than use the 14th amendment, but also ... kinda feel like it will have an interested readership of somewhere between -4 and 0.
@Pwnallthethings the fourteenth amendment is the mechanism by which a private citizen who owns t bills can sue the treasury secretary in DDC for an injunctive order to mint the coin. Minting the coin is the way to obey the fourteenth amendment.
