A walk down memory lane

After more than 10 years, the Republican game plan stays the same. Only now, it's on steroids after the Trump Cult found a way to hold an iron grip.

"In this analysis, the Republicans believe they can reclaim the lucrative levers of national authority by making the country as ungovernable as possible while a Democrat is in the White House, essentially holding governance hostage until they are restored to power. Then, the Democrats are expected to behave as a docile opposition “for the good of the country” (and usually do)."

This is a very odd “walk down memory lane”. An accurate walk would observe that both Republican and Democratic Parties are selectively obstructionist when the other is in power. Our political system is a jacked up mess. Our politicians are even worse.

Nothing a dictatorship of the proletariat won't resolve in the interest of the vast majority.

No, I was comparing the right wing MO from then to now. It hasn't changed other than the 2.0 ramp up of right wing obstruction here;
