It raises an interesting issue: To what extent can the legislative branch effectively “railroad” an incoming president (or any future president) despite the platform upon which the new president got elected?
All of this is cause primarily because the Republican Party hates most of its voters. The Democrats (despite their complaints) don’t suffer from this phenomena to the same degree.
Could someone tell me why not just Romney, Murkowski and Collins voting for this but why are Kennedy of Louisiana, Markwayne Mullin of Oklahoma and Young of Indiana, among other supposed “conservatives” approving this garbage??
