I agree but I would say the Republicans are the timid party. They are bullied, doxed, threatened and their family threatened, intimidated by being fired (cancel culture), sued and financially ruined in the courts like Michael Flynn. And then there is rioting... So you have to be an exceptionally strong person to face up to that kind onslaught.

I think Republican fight amongst themselves and is safe and almost a gentlemanly sport. But the Democrats are not like that... there are no gentlemanly rules, they fight dirty and are relentless, e.g., Judge Sullivan now still after Flynn after he was pardoned. So there are no accepted laws for the Democrats and they continue to threaten like a criminal family. They are evil. The Democrats are all together in doing evil and Republicans are cowardly when they have all the evidence of corruption and still fail to act, e.g., still certified the election as in PA. Republicans in power know they will be threaten mercilessly and the FBI and DOJ will do nothing.

From the 1930s until 1994 the Republicans were almost always the minority party in Congress (until Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America in 1994). So they are used to talking a good game but never having to deliver. Bill Clinton’s excesses and Barack Obama’s overreach gave them control of Congress but they are afraid to do anything with it. And of course since 2018 the Democrats have had the House of Representatives. Republican politicians at the federal level seem mostly content to be in the minority as long as they personally get re-elected.
