At one point, Obama said the political wrangling confirmed what the public considers to be the worst of Washington, according to Democratic sources familiar with the talks who spoke on condition of not being identified.

Multiple sources, also speaking on condition of anonymity, said Obama told the gathering that “this could bring my presidency down,” referring to his pledge to veto any short-term extension of the debt ceiling. Sources say he vowed, “I will not yield on this.”

The exchange concluded almost two hours of talks that failed to achieve a breakthrough.

And it is that deal—the more lucrative arrangement struck with the teams—that has fanned the county’s current struggles.
