As our country races towards a financial cliff known as the debt limit, there is growing talk of President Biden invoking the 14th Amendment to defy the debt limit statute and continue to pay our nation's bills. Garrett Epps and Peter Shane join Jeanne Hruska to discuss the 14th Amendment and what could be the least worst option for the country.
