The last republican to gain significant ground on the democrats was Reagan.
Since him, all republicans have shown up to the policy fight with knives when they knew the democrats were going to draw a gun at the first hint of losing.
Frankly, I think the republicans “like” the way Washington works now. It’s the democrats that act like a party with a mission.
