When pigs fly the Republicans will control 61 in the Senate, own the White House and the H of Reps. Actually, they would need 70 in the Senate to have 61 votes. The House of Representatives has only one job to do in this type of instance, shut down the govt until the budget is balanced. CRASH the FED, lay it at the feet of the Democrats and walk away. I don’t care if they ever get voted into office again, if the do this one thing they are winners. You and I both know that the budget is out of control, if not now, when? We don’t have 5 years, we have maybe 3 before the dollar is dumped as the global currency, and we crash anyway.
The Founders simply did not design our branches of government to function in a “hurry up” fashion.
And lets the God they didn’t, or else we would have a single payer health care system now
