.RepGarretGraves — a chief debt ceiling negotiator — said there has been an erosion of trust between him and some members of the House Republican Conference who have vocally opposed and attacked the debt ceiling bill he helped negotiate.
Talking to reporters, Graves, who was the lead debt ceiling negotiator for the House, said there has been some trust lost, especially with Rep. Chip Roy , whom he candidly described as someone he went from “kind of disliking to really liking a lot and having a tremendous amount of respect for,” but he said the relationship has eroded a little over the past week.“I think there was some trust was lost," Graves said, speaking about Roy and his comments.
He and Roy have talked a little bit about it, Graves said, but once the debt ceiling bill is through, they will need to have a longer conversation. In a tweet in response to Graves's comments, Roy said he thinks Graves is a"good man" and knows Graves worked hard to get a deal but that he still thinks it's a bad bill.
