You're making it impossible for the party to win any concessions from Democrats.

This is laughable. The GOP regularly gets pantsed by the Democrats in these "negotiations". The RINOs are the ones that are comfortable with losing.

You pass the bills and send them to the Senate. The Senate modifies them and sends them back. You reduce spending another 5% , defund the Dept of Ed and send them the bill. The Senate modifies it and sends it back. You reduce it another 5% and defund the Dept of ED and Agriculture. Repeat....

Simple solution: advance bills your party agrees to.

It’s so simple, it’s stupid.

RATS don’t make concessions.
They tell you what they want and tell you to live with it.
