    GOP by and large wants to block things from happening. They want to hit the big giant pause button on society. And blocking things requires, drumroll please, only 1 of the 3. That’s it. If the GOP has a single 1 of the 3, they can stop literally everything.

    Passing bills requires all 3. Stopping things from passing takes 1. Also known as: it’s hard to build things up, and it’s easy to tear things down.

      Yes, agreed, it is easier to obstruct than it is to lead. But Conservatives have been far more effective at both. It’s like a tug of war where one side isn’t holding on to the rope. It doesn’t matter if we’re trying to gain ground or just minimize the damage, Democrats suck at both.

        I’ll point you back to the math. 6 years in the last 44 years.

        And yes cons fall in line. It’s a saying for a reason. Left is an assortment of infighting and protest non voters. Want more? Then make sure then they can win without catering to the center. Again see the math.
