Yes, I fully agree. So would the Republican voters. The Republicans made a campaign promise of dysfunction, and the Republicans are successfully delivering on that promise. The MAGA crowd love that Gaetz and the chaos caucus are doing this. They are enthusiastic about the direction that American politics are moving.
What did the Democrats promise? I don’t believe they promised to stand by and watch while the world burns under Republican dysfunction.
The wrong party is the one keeping its promises.
