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.

You guys have done nothing for over 8 years. Leave the President alone. Either work with him or step aside. Go home.

Well its not hard to figure out!!! The Establishment Republicans and Democrats are ALL on the Same Page!!! They ALL want the same thing!! They want NO change in the way things are run in Washington!!! They ALL get their Goody Baskets filled continually with the Special Interest Bunch and Our Elected Officials could care less about WE THE PEOPLE who elected them!!! We have a few good honest people who have been elected to Serve the People but they are out numbered by the Establishment!!!!! Now that there is a President For The People coupled with a few in Congress we can at least HOPE that things will change!!
Thats it exactly, Robert, We need Term Limits Badly!!!!!
