Y'all are looking at this through the prism of Democrat versus Republican.

Gaetz just wants narrowly scoped appropriations bills with the ability to amend, debate and vote...you know legislate. Something congress has not done since the mid '90s.

McCarthy wants single vote continuing resolutions, aka omnibus bills. McCarthy and the rest of the Uniparty want to be able to say, sorry about that Ukraine spending but I had to vote yes on the bill to give our district the bridge to no-where that everyone wanted.

Again, Gaetz just want's narrowly scoped appropriations to give him and his congressional colleagues the opportunity to vote on Ukraine spending and the bridge to no-where separately for example.

The Uniparty wants all or nothing.

And his strategy is going to make these harder to do, b/c he's going to take a huge L due to this horrible strat.

Gaetz is taking a huge L and failing in spectacular fashion. Is giving the DEMs more than they would get had he fallen in line a win in any sense of the word, outside of symbolic victories and virtue signaling?

And this is the way it should be. They want to be able to hide and fill the belly with fat.
