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.

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.

Any system is vulnerable to bad actors. The checks and balances in this case are not voting for idiots, but

The founders sadly never could predict that one party would become Unamerican and 40% of the populace have their brain rotten away by lead.

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.

New Whig party!

They are a party made of people looking for a quick money scheme. They just can't agree who's the head grifter

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.

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?

So in 250+ years this has never happened, but you're totally cool with it because it jives with some misconception you have about what's really going on? The real reason this is happening is that the Republicans, through gerrymandering and collective cowardice, have allowed themselves to be taken over by a crazed nihilistic extremist minority. It's not about different opinions.

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...

Hey, there's 2 parties, so 2 opinions. Plenty! If we had more options, we would all suffer from decision paralysis, right!? Right?

Not very quickly. How many of them are multimillionaires? Go ahead, guess. Here's a hint.

More than half of those in Congress are millionaires, data from lawmakers’ most recent personal financial disclosures shows. The median net worth of members of Congress who filed disclosures last year is just over $1 million. 

They won't care if they miss a year's worth of paychecks if they can hurt poor people by doing so.

when we talk policies this argument has some merit, but we are talking fundamental proceedings to enable the parliament to be able to work at all.

if a party cannot get this straight and its members to compromise for that,then this harms democracy much more. It paralyzes and ultimately delegitimizesdemocracy as a form of government,which is precisely what the MAGA hats want.

I disagree. I think the whole situation will force Republicans to work with Democrats because now that there's 3 "parties," there will have to be more compromises.

That's not how Republicans work though, tow the party line is sort of their mantra

Uh, no, this is not in fact how it's supposed to work. Not even close. This is why it's never happened before.

Sounds like an easy system to abuse.
