Why do liberals get under the skin of Republicans? Is there some unwritten rule that says Republicans have to give them the time of day? I find that so much time is wasted trying to figure them out when the answer is they are nothing but children in grown-up bodies. Enlighten me, please.

They don't have to, but in many instances, they will need some Dem votes to pass legislation.

I agree with you OP but the problem is they own the MSM and most Americans are dumber than K-9 excrement and are easily cucked. That is the problem.

I can't take them seriously.

Their arguments are usually supported by uncontrolled emotion and anecdotes that I don't care about.

Conservatives have a better sense of fairness than liberals and will let them have their say...

I just get this overwhelming feeling that they're on a "sinister" mission. I really do.

They clearly want to grab power and squash dissent so they never lose it once they get it.

This is exactly the attitude the progressive left has. I'd advise those on the right not to act like them, lest ye lose like them.

Democrats are welcome to come along but they must sit in the back of the bus.

Remember this Barack.

Koch bros and the rest of the donor class, fundamentalist mega church preachers and Bannon.
That's all.

No but it would be nice to have some bi-partisan support for a new healthcare bill as opposed to the ramrod job the Democrats did with Obamacare.

There are some moderate Democrats out there (Joe Manchin, Joe Donnelly) who are worth working with on legislation.

Pot kettle black and all that. I don't understand why people can't see that both sides to the same shite to each other, and say the same shite about each other.
