House Speaker accused President of 'playing politics' with the U.S. debt limit on Tuesday amid a standoff over how to avoid a massive national default that could tank financial markets across the globe.'I want to look the president in the eye, and tell me there's not $1 of wasteful spending in government. Who believes that? the American public doesn't believe that,' the leader told reporters at a press conference on Tuesday evening.'Our whole government is designed to have compromise, but here's the leader of the free world, pounding on the table, being irresponsible, saying "No, no, no, just raise the limit. Make us spend more." No, that's not how adults act.'
