The source of many of the problems we see in getting legislation through a nominally Republican Congress is that there are really at least two Republican parties. Or, to put it another way, the Republican Party is far from united.
This is obvious when you try to put two senators such as Rand Paul and John McCain in the same political party. It just doesn’t work. Except for routine procedural matters and non-controversial legislation, there are going to be conflicts that are going to prevent reforms and stifle the agenda on which President Trump campaigned and won.
The Democrats don’t seem to have this problem. They know how to whip members into line. Observe the massive corruption of the Obama administration and of Hillary Clinton. Yet the Democrats, especially party leadership, stick by them and run interference for them no matter what. It becomes difficult to imagine any crime, other than perhaps personal acts of violence, that Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton could commit that would cause them to lose any support from their party.
We see the failure of the Republican Party to act as a cohesive force in the current debate over the President’s budget proposal.

If he does I will leave the protest I will lead lead not leave
these old establishment guys need to go
How about all the $$$$$ Obama stole out of SSI
How do these pieces of trash get elected to leadership. If they want to be democrats let them run as such.
There are as many Republican Swamp Creatures as there are Democrats. Trump is fighting an uphill battle. The Swamp runs so deep that Trump is never going to be able to clean house. After four years Trump will see that our country is doomed and there is nothing to be done about it. rmn.
He may get voted out next time he runs for office.
Our Republican Party is NOT listening to their voters. We must come together and seek new blood — vote out these worthless politicians of the swamp for working Republicans who adhere to promises!

Kenny Bachman ” Shouldn’t you be in your staright jacket? Got loose again huh. rmn.
This guy has been the reason that Trumps Policies are dragging ! Ryan, McCain and Graham are also a hinderence . With complete control there is no reason the Republicans can’t proceed ! There is no other reason !
This man needs to be voted out of office. He is a snake!
