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.

He needs to go home if he can not do the job of the party he was elected to do. The deplorables need to rise up and kick his old crusty butt. He thinks he has more power than the people of the party he was elected to represent. Who has him in their pocket?
First they say the Healthcare is being done behind close doors , yet Nancy and a few others say things about it ?
The Healthcare system was destroyed by Obamacare, I hope the Rebs can get things lined out , even if some of those that receive FREE !! Healthcare will have to help pay for theirs just like many others. Or ALL of them could take a HUGE pay cut and Pay for Healthcare for ALL of us !
Eric the TROLL is back!
A main reason the GOP has failed to get anything done. M.McConnell
I have never been so disgusted by our gov’t as I currently am.
So Trumps big crime is that he is not “one of the guys” in the political field and they have used false accusations thrown at him, thrown at his family, his finances that he legally doesn’t have to share, and our election process and results. This character assassination should make every American open their eyes necause the people that make up our govt want a closed system. They want secrecy, supporr internsl corruption, pay offs from lobbyists and all things that Trump has avowed to change.
People opposing him are shooting themselves in the foot because they don’t get it.
Republicans have the control of ll houses….and you can’t pass anything! What a bunch of inane people! They need to be ousted in the next election…and many voters are feeling the same! Get it together and quit acting like democrats!
Stand behind our President and support his agenda! We elected him to do the job he is trying to do but can’t because of you weak kneed RINO’s!!!!!!
F**E
I will not vote for a Democrat again, but I will not vote for a Republican that can not get the job done. You do know there are other Republicans running for you job
well, we’re aware now of their true characters and elections are coming up.
