Unfortunately for the Republicans that are trying to play brinksmanship, that will make Biden look like a hero.
A huge economic disaster occurs, doesn't matter who caused it, but then Biden gets to swoop in and solve it with the flick of a pen. Cue victory lap.
Sure, the Republicans will try to tie it down and to make it seem like he caused it. Doesn't matter though, because he's the one that solves it.
As Rove said, never let a good crisis go to waste.

Republican voters are well aware that the the GOP is not actually going to let the US default.
But because Democrats seem unaware of this the GOP is using it as a good time to negotiate with little risk.
