The GOPe crowd has no desire to govern. They don't want to make hard choices on the allocation of scarce resources to effect the public good.
They have abdicated governance to the social democrats and only ask in return their cut on the deal. Having become a majority, they can hold out for a high ransome indeed.
“The GOPe crowd has no desire to govern.”
Right. They’re content enough to have big titles, exist in the lofty social set, attend fancy dinners and events, forego the healthcare system which they’ve inflicted on their peons back home, jet around the country/world. Why mess that up by governing? Govern? Eeeewww. It’s hard!
