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.

McConnell & all RINO’s; Their Donor’s & Apologist are Despicable.!
Defund RNC.

Mark Moden, since McConnell is the REPUBLICAN Leader of the House it would seem he should back up the Republican President Trump instead of trying to block him. that is what is the problem with Washington. The republicans in Congress do not back up the president and they should be. they are making the republican party look like fools.. We voted for the republicans so our country could be better and they are not doing a thing for the people – no more than the democrats are doing. The president and Congress work for the people and are answerable to the people. we don’t see that happening. the republicans better straighten up because come 2020 they will all be out of work.
Old fart…he must desperate for attention.
McConnell’s$#%&!@*mustache fell off.

Term limits would drain the democrat and republican swamp and prevent all those swamp rats from wrecking the country.
McConnell should step down .we need a real republican to run the senate .not a$#%&!@*…
Too many supposed- to- be republicans in the Senate that block the president and do not support him. They need to go same in the House.
We the people need to create an admendment limiting term limits. I believe the polls say it is about 83% for it. I bet most against are political hacks and bottom feeders!
The forefathers did not intend being a member of Congress to be a career They wanted it to be a temporary job and not a career. Too many have made it into a career. There are term limits for the president – there should be the same for Congress. Keep in mind the Congress works for us – the people. Vote them out.
This boy got his lunch money taken every day ..
Of course he wants to block tax refunds—less he has to spend for government c**p
Vote the rinos out !!!!
