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.

Vote this$#%&!@*out he is USELESS…!!!
The man is an idiot. The lack of discipline and focus will result in missed opportunities.
McConnell needs to go far away from politics !!!!!!!!
This is why term limies of 4 years and your out forever is necessary!
Swamp dweller.
All of these Libs to to be remembered when elections come around
What else is new? Please , just tell me one Democrats that doesn’t block OUR PRESIDENT! WOULDN’T THAT BE EASIER?
I have never seen a democrat chastise another democrat. Even if they are wrong they will circle the wagons. These so called republicans have done nothing to back Trump, they know they are part of the swamp. None of them have spoken up for him.Ryan’s a Muslim, Graham a big disappointment, McConnell, McCain are no better than Harry Reid. Trump can’t do this alone. Gotta keep praying for him.
the republican people have said this many times that McConnell paul Ryan and McCain are all rinos we are sure they all work for Soros.
Lord put him where he can do no more harm. Amen
