I am all for the FENCE NOW.
I think you underestimate the forces for evil overtly obvious in the DIMRAT CAMP but stepping back for a greater perspective view of the whole big picture--the globalist forces have many nooses around our collective throats--especially around our Constitutional rights, media, institutions, freedoms etc. And, they have the means of drawing those nooses tight.
Certainly 33% roughly are vigorously and blindly, mindlessly cheering such Marxist efforts on. Another 5-30% depending are happy to collude when the delusion and Machiavellian manipulations are slick enough to foll them into it--which is increasingly common.
Giving the DIMRATS more power at this point in history would be truly suicidal to the Bill of Rights, to our Republic and to Freedom loving folks everywhere. It might not mean the demise of our Republic. I believe God will eventually raise it back up more or less regardless. But it looks at present that the forces of evil are determined to shred our Republic in order to make raising up the Global tyrannical government far easier.
They are not kidding.
And they are more powerful than you seem to believe.
Voting them MORE power will only speed their traitorous efforts regardless of if it's 2 years, 4 years or 8 years.
And I seriously question whether after 4 years or however many of Shrillery in power--whether we COULD have another fair election, or not.

No, we couldn't.
If the Democrats hold Congress and Hillary Clinton is President, it will be Sulla's Republic, no doubt about it.
Looking down the road, things get worse and worse.
So, the truth is that tax hawks will, in fact, destroy the Republic rather than let taxes be raised. Raise taxes, and they walk just like they did in 1992. It's just reality. Ergo, we can't raise taxes.
Truth is, pro-lifers will, in fact, destroy the Republic rather than support a pro-abortion President or Supreme Court nominee. Nominate someone they're not sure of, and they walk out. Ergo, we can't do that.
Truth is, Border Conservatives will, in fact, walk out and destroy the Republican majority...and thereby, eventually, the Republic, if the border isn't closed. Give amnesty and no fence, and they walk out. Ergo, we can't do that.
But that's what Bush proposed and the Senate is insisting on.
The shenanigans have to stop. The Senate and the President have to cave. If they don't, well, the Republican minority will adopt that stance next year. It'd be safer and better if we didn't have to go through that.
