“But the Democrats made us do it. It’s all their fault.” - Every Republican that has been on the news.
Fuckin singles cunts can’t even handle their own party and want to handle the country.
Sounds incredibly difficult to reign in a party that is only united in one thing. Opposing the democrats. Ideologically they have no unifying belief other than ‘democrats bad.’ Add to it each one of them is (not so) secretly vying for their own personal gain. It’s a wonder anything gets done with these nobs leaching off the system.
Exactly. They have no plan to fall on beside using Democrats as the boogie man. I found only one of them with a back boned and went on air saying that he would never vote for someone that has been saying the election was stolen. Sadly he will likely be voted out next year for being honest.
This is the real kicker here. It’s all just theatre to keep attention on themselves while they gridlock the House from doing any meaningful work. Then they’ll use it as an excuse to say Dems can’t get anything done.
Sounds like a party that isn’t unified.
We need more choices.
This 2-party nonsense is bad for America.
The system isn’t going to change itself though
Remember when Obama chastised his Republican Congress for failing to pass the yearly roads bill? Because they didn’t want him to get a “win” by signing it? Boy howdy! Glad those crazy times are past us!
That’s what happens when you vote for trolls. They can’t actually lead anything.
Its almost like theres a new party forming or something
Wow that would be something, breaking up of the GOP. Dems could rule with stable majority for next 20 years - except they would surely fuck it up somehow.
Probably the best point in time to change the constitution to remove first past the post rules wherever possible if that’s the case
I don’t know that I would get too excited about a small, but growing, fascist movement forming its own party. Seems we’ve seen that one before, didn’t seem to work out great.
New Whig party!
Exactly. The violent crazies, the tight asses and the adults.
Because 12 of them will only elect a maga one.
And I can’t believe I’m saying this but I’m glad that they’re holding out. The less they’re touching legislation like a bunch of conniving molesters by abusing their majority, the better.
That’s their goal. Paralyze congress, prevent funding bills and critical legislation from even being voted on, and then go to their voters and blame their failures on the “non-cooperative” democrats.
The voters who would believe Democrats are the ones who are obstructing government, and the voters who would ever vote for anyone who isn’t a Republican, have no overlap.
Are you telling me people in the same party, of a 2 party system, can have some differing opinions? crazy thought.
Here’s the thing. The job of a Congress member is to create compromise and work for all the people. If they can’t work the most basic part of the job, what good are they?
Hmm, not sure if that’s working. https://media.tenor.com/3x63SNMKPogAAAAd/oh-wait-youre-serious.gif
It came through. You are a master of the interwebs!
Hey, there’s 2 parties, so 2 opinions. Plenty! If we had more options, we would all suffer from decision paralysis, right!? Right?
Doubly so when you realize “fall in line” has been their mantra for the past 30 years and the straw that broke that camels back was checks notes bipartisanship…
Only a majority vote is required to expel a member. The Dems would probably help too.
Get started 😂
Good thing the Republicans have a long history of bi-partisan cooperation in the interest of a smoothly functioning government, and thus have built up a reserve of good will they can call upon to help resolve this dilemma, right?
How about if the government shuts down there is an emergency re-election of all members of whatever segment of government caused it.
All of them, all sides. Not eligible for re-election because they obviously FAILED at their job.
The average working person doesn’t get a chance if they shut down their “company.”

The answer is in the question bud. Republicans have a pretty slim majority, those few who keep siding with Democrats are the ones preventing the rest of the R’s from getting anything done
The ones holding up the process aren’t really siding with Democrats, they’re just against theit own party’s nominees for various reasons. It’s an important distinction.
It may not be your intention, but this comment feels like it’s blaming Democrats for not going along when Republicans have the majority and keep failing to put someone up that they can all agree on. Several Republicans have been pushing the narrative that Democrats are to blame for their own party’s disfunction.
That’s absolutely not what I said. My point is that R’s should know the Dems aren’t going to go along with what they want and should do a better job presenting a unified front. You’d think these idiots would know that there’s got to be some some give and take, especially when the Senate and Presidency are controlled by the Dems.
And yeah, to be fair, there are some R’s that are causing problems because they see the rest of the caucus as not conservative enough, but there are also those moderate R’s causing problems because they see the rest of the caucus as too conservative
…there are also those moderate R’s causing problems because they see the rest of the caucus as too conservative
If by “too conservative” you mean “MAGA cultists”, then we agree
“EveRyONe i dON’t LiKE Is a nAzI!!!1!!!1!” lmao at least they aren’t gender ideology cultists
