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.

Need to get all these bastards
McConnell the American people want tax reform and a tax rebate. Help the people that are paying the freight which is the middle class. You work for the people and since your the majority leader rally your fellow Senators or else get the hell out. We’re tired of excuses just get it done. You all need to be voted out both republicans and democrats. You all drink from the same trough.
start congress from scratch
He is evil
Ass far as I’m concerned..both parties can$#%&!@*off.
Asshole view from the other side. Both the left and right extremes are killing us. We’re acting like “Americans in name only!”
Time to bombard our individual representatives with demands that McConnell and Ryan be removed and replaced. Those two are Democrats.
MAJORITY LEADER McCONNELL WHY ARE YOU BLOCK PRESIDENT Donald J. Trump WHY DON’T YOU GET OF YOUR BUTT AND HELP TRUMP I HAVE NEVER BEEN SO DISGUSTED BY OUR GOV’T AS I CURRENTLY AM
This throwing a monkey wrench into every thing the present administration does is nonsensical. A waste of time and money. Just because Trump says yes you leftist are going to say no. If it were Hillary or Obama presenting the same bill you would break your flippen necks to sign it. You people are detestable.
The RINO’s are as big or even a bigger threat to Making America Great Again than the liberal Democrats. Why don’t we hear Ol Mitch hollering for the total enforcement of the McCarran – Walters Act.
