When I read Articles like this, you could replace the word “Republican” with “ISIS” and the fear would remain the same, if not lessened to some degree.

What a pathetic clown. Would he object to a one party democrat state? No. Fools cannot hide their idiocy.

This guy acts like the GOP is actually Conservative instead of being the Socialist faction of the bipartisan big gubmint Communist cabal.

The real trifecta is total party control, which takes a simple majority in the House, a fillibuster proof 60 vote majority in the Senate, and the Presidency.
Since WW2 the GOP has never achieved this.
Team Donkey has achieved it 3 times: early in FDR's time, under LBJ, and for the first 1.5 years of Obama, until Ted Kennedy died and was replace by GOP Senator Scott Brown.
When you look at the legislation that has transformed America, is blatently unconstitutional, and is bankrupting us these three periods stand out. FDR and the New Deal, LBJ and the Great Society and Obama and Obamacare.
It is interesting to speculate on whether, if the GOP actually scored the trifecta they would know what to do with it. For instance, cleaning out the illegal mess, despite the inevitable whining of the media.
One suspects they would not.

One suspects they would not. Given the record they have for inaction [and wrong action], I would expect nothing good from such a setup.

Would he object to a one party democrat state? Isn't that what the democrats had the first two years of bathhouse barry's misadministration? Did he complain then?

They’d know what to do with it; problem is, it won’t be the right thing for the country and would be too like their Democratic Unipartiers.

The mortal threat to American liberalism is in putting the legislative and executive branches of government under the unrestrained power of a Republican Party in the grip of intolerant and extremist factions...Just wow, I remember when the differences between the dems and the pubs was just a matter of small policy tweeking.
Now, the 2 parties are so far apart in ideological differences that they have become complete polar opposites.
And the country suffers because of the newly formed low information voter party, aka, the new democrats.

Imagine what it would be like to have two opposing parties that both believed in God, both believed in liberty, both believed in the Constitution, and the arguments were just about nuts and bolt practical issues about what works better.

Given the number of states, including my own Massachusetts, that have become effectively one party Communist (Democrat, but same difference) states, this guy can go cry me a river.

We control the Supreme Court eh? I guess that’s why we still have Huissencare.
