is on the trail? he. >> he brings a lot to the campaign. hard man not to like even if you don't agree with him. he is seasoned. he doesn't have a lot of executive experience. senators don't. he has the potential to have a strong candidacy. the problem is very few people, relatively speaking know who he is. he has a big hill to climb to make himself visible. in a you had crossed field that's not easy to do. this is becoming quite a crowded field. >> bret: all right, brit, as always. thank you, senator scott will be a guest of trey gowdy at 8:00 p.m. eastern time. one of the heads of the federal reserve banks talks about the debt debate. later a cease-fire for now in the wars over water rights out west. west. ♪
progressives and conservatives who have widely divergent views here. >> and as we wait for the president to speak, of course, we'll be bringing that to you live. i want to bring in nbc's allie raffa. what is the president expected to say today? >> reporter: yeah, jose, shortly after we saw the president at that medal of valor ceremony, we heard from the white house he would be delivering these remarks on how the biden administration would prevent a first ever government default before leaving to japan on that g-7 summit that as ali mentioned has been cut short by more than half. he was supposed to go to japan, papua new guinea and australia on this historic trip, more than half of that cut short to make sure that the president was back here in d.c. to make sure this debt debate got taken over the finish line. and because all parties involved here are acknowledging that june 1st so-called x date default deadline, we did see some incremental progress yesterday.
>> what does the white house say about the president's decision to go to this meeting? >> reporter: yeah, jose. speaker mccarthy actually comment on this again this morning saying in part, quote, all i know is we've got 16 more days. i don't think i would spend eight days somewhere out of the country during this time. so, this is really what white house officials see as a lose/lose scenario as the president. this debt debate impacts his trip to japan, australia for these key two summits, they risk what white house officials are saying is a key national security piece of this because you risk these global leaders of these global economies potentially doubting the president and the u.s.'s economic reliability. so, sources are telling us that the president is being realistic right now. he doesn't expect a full deal to come out of today's meeting, but he certainly expects at least the beginning of a framework so that he can leave tomorrow on this overseas trip confident
3.37 trillion, that's trillion with a t in new spending since president biden came into office over the past two years. and that's spending and, of course, the fed missed the early signs of inflation but that spending led us to where we are today and to the economic situation that we're in i also thought it was interesting jerome powell spent a lot of the press conference what would happen if america doesn't pay our bills referencing the debt debate that is going on in washington right now and mccarthy still trying to get president biden to meet with him. looks like it may happen soon. but clearly jerome powell was warning people that america's failure to get, to pay our bills and pay that on time will have lasting consequences for our economy. at least in the short run. >> bret: yeah. and, you know, it's interesting, brit, it is off to -- we will have that negotiation with the congressional leaders in the white house over the debt ceiling next week and talking about the budget. but the president's campaign launched. he is out with a second campaign today. he focuses on the u.s. economy.
