For decades our side has dreamed of the Dems having a split. It never happened. They vote in total lockstep conformity on all the major legislation year after year.

The dangerous split is in the GOP. Libertarians, Vance vs Rubio, RINOs, always Trump faction (me) vs. foot draggers and fickle supporters or traitors. Nail biting over major bills which should be quickly supported and passed.

The RINOs are the problem. Democrats in Republican drag. Hell, there are articles about Democrats quietly running as Republicans.
IMHO, the real problem is the permanent bureaucracy that uses bribes and blackmail as leverage. Tim Burchett has spoken on what happens multiple times.
Blanche is at least hitting some of the corruption, but a lot of it is low hanging fruit. But when it comes to a Comey, or a Clinton, or a Mark Elias, or Norm Eisen, or Podesta...nothing. Because they're being protected.

Disbanding USAID was a big step, but not enough.

We're dealing with a Mafia of sorts. And its going to require mafia solutions, as distasteful as that sounds. The other alternative is no less palatable, and probably worse.

It’s because democrats you’re either all in or all out. And the leadership ensure it. Unlike the GOP where everyone gets to do their own thing and screw over the President.

One is a party hell bent on ruling. The other is a party hell bent on just not losing their grifting job and doesn’t mind being in the minority as it’s easier to win re-election in the minority.
