What good is it to control the House if the GOP all vote like Dems anyway?

They are all on the same team and they are not on your side.

Democrats are democrats
Republicans are mostly democrats
There is a reason why you see democrats changing to Republican but never the opposite

Some Republicans actually do what their constituents want....the rest are scumbags in republican clothing.

It is called infiltration. There are two teams. Dims and Reps. The dims control their party and they have successfully ran dims as republicans to control the opposition... successfully.
Cassidy is a perfect example. Life long dim. Moves and runs as a republican and low information people voted him into office. Even today many republican's don't realize they were swindled.

You won’t have to worry about that soon after a few more rhinos resign

A lot of stupid in your post, but let’s start with this. Do you remember Kirstin Sinema and Manchin stopping Biden’s BBB bill? That was just a couple of years ago. Democrats break ranks just like Republicans do. In fact, if you would ever leave your echo-chamber you’d know that Democrats say the same things about Republicans - they never break ranks.
Also, why do you think Biden is straddling the Palestinian/Israeli conflict? It’s because the Democrat party is torn over it, with Muzzies saying they won’t support Biden if he doesn’t force Israel to stand down, and Jews and other civilized Dems saying he must support Israel.
Also, apropos of your thread title, the Republicans clearly don’t vote the same way as the Democrats otherwise we would have had that $3 trillion BBB bill foisted on us.

I don’t often agree with you but your points are sound.

The majority of the GOP voted against the spending. Sadly the are plenty of RINOs willing to vote with the Dems.

$1,200,000,000,000.
Dems got everything they wanted. Why deal with the hassle of controlling congress with a majority. They control it whether they have more seats or less.

bullshite. GOPe helped Manchin. They regrouped and Turtle basically passed the same thing disguised giving Manchin cover with the coal lobby. Sinema's family disowned her after the wedding incident.

While this bill is in fact nuts, the dems did not get everything they wanted.

Sure they did. They claimed to want more but got exactly what they wanted.

Manchin and Sinema did vote to stop filibuster reform if I remember correctly.

This is one of few examples of Dems standing up for their own self interest instead of the party line. The Dems strategy of courting 30 groups that make up 5% of the population each has been pretty successful. They have gays defending muslims, who hate gays. They have feminists sticking up for men in dresses that are taking things away from women.
