Biden's spending is 'like someone with a new credit card': Sen. John Barrasso

Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., appeared on ABC's "This Week."

President Joe Biden's spending is "like someone with a new credit card," Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., said Sunday on ABC's "This Week," signaling difficulty ahead for the expansive presidential agenda laid out in the past week, but also pointing to potential successes in terms of what GOP leaders may compromise on going forward. "And these are things that we don't necessarily need -- we certainly can't afford -- but they're going to delight the liberal left of the party," Barrasso, the leader of the Senate Republican conference, told "This Week" co-anchor Martha Raddatz of Biden's spending bills. So far, Biden counted a success on his nearly $2 trillion coronavirus plan, while working toward Congressional compromise on his $2 trillion infrastructure proposal and his $111 billion American Jobs plan. "Ultimately, someone's going to have to pay for this. It's almost creating an addiction to spending," he added. Barrasso also told Raddatz that Democrats are privately becoming apprehensive about the price tag of Biden's plans.
