No, I don’t “say” it, it’s what happened here.

He was applauded for it. In the same vein, we’ve always torn apart politicians who reach across the aisle.

What changed? When did that suddenly become desirable?

The reaching across the aisle business seemed to be mostly a one way street going LEFT. If the reach started turning right then it would make sense. The pendulum needs to swing hard. That's where the bully pulpit and the voter anger comes in.

Our system was set up to be a negotiation. We just need to out negotiate for a change.
