I said in advance of last year’s election that Republican Congress would let fighting get away with more than Democrats congressman did.
Because they don’t WANT to be in power, they want to be in the minority, where nothing is expected, and they can just cash in on doing nothing.
“Once we have the presidency, the house and senate, the supreme court, and all the federal courts in our favor, THEN we can do all that stuff that you peons want. Until then, it wouldn’t matter what we do, as someone somewhere would rule against it, and call us big poopy-heads, and we can’t have THAT!”.
