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.

What a disgrace. These are people we elected. They act like children.
McConnell is supposed to be a uniter not a divider as he appears to be.
Get rid of Congress,;get rid of “0”care Get rid of opposition.
I have NEVER voted for a Democrat and now I will never vote for a repub in office that is not a constitutionalist.
Not much of a party. Seems like a lot of poppers.
Obama leftovers trump needs to fire all of them
Back our President boys. If it isn’t right and he screws it up we the people who put him in will take care of it in 2020.
Sadly, Mitch will likely be rounded up with the globalist moles in the RNC, to be dispatched, or sent into exile. About one hundred at the top, both parties, should be summarily executed on live TV. The rest should be branded on the face, sex organs removed and put into exile or executed. Any who complain will join them. You notice, not once did I call for either a socialist judge, lawyer, or other officals help. You notice I don’t call for socialist approved evidence either. Our legal system is so corrupt we would have to retry many, and release others with crooked judges already identified.
You allowed Obamacare to be rammed through when even its authors knew it would be budget busting, you allowed massive refugee relocation funding and paying up front for an Iran Nuke giveaway deal and even generous pay increases for congress, but now your worried about fixing taxes, reviving military and getting a healthcare fix with hindsight?
You are more against the A
American people than they thought. This actions show them what is really in the swamp. All some of you only think of yourselves. All of you should be given what pay your worth and that’s very little. American people are disgusted with you all.
