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.

WHY DO WE EVEN VOTE REPUBLICAN, THEY ARE COWARDS! Republicans do NOT know how to fight or win! Most have no guts, no spine and/or no balls. We need to vote them ALL out and bring in new representatives that want to work for us in Washington instead of just sitting on their butts for years, drawing a paycheck without working for the people, it is all about them and they are getting as bad as the Democrats. One thing for sure is that Democrats unite and stand their ground, Republicans could learn at least one positive thing from them. I thought for once we could make a difference but they were there long before Trump and NOTHING new. Remember their names, vote them OUT of office for NOT getting in front of the cameras and fighting AGAINST the Democrats and the media and FOR the President.
Please call your Representatives and tell them you support President Trump and if they don’t start getting behind him publicly, we will vote them out in 2018. Them not doing anything to stop the lies makes them as guilty as the Democrats. http://www.house.gov/representatives/
This clown needs to be retired!
Term limits
We need to vote this in
no such thing as Rhino and Dems. It is all the Oligarchy that has been running this country BCBO and they are throwing a hissey fit because they lost and want to make sure they get it back in 2020. The only have to delay Trump to point to the ineffectiveness of his administration. It will blow up in their faces. We now know who they are (paul ryan you’re not fooling anyone) and we can see what you are doing.
There are no rules around here, we’re trying to get things done !
Do what the people voted you to do.
