re: How do we divorce ourselves from the Democrats?

Yeah, I feel represented because the Republicans I vote for are sane people who live in the real world and realize with razor thin ever shifting majorities and divided government there are deals that must be made if you hope to get any of what you want.

BTW no one is happy with the immigration situation.

But, the debt thing.....I laugh at both Democrats and Republicans who bitch about it when the other party holds the White House and the conveniently forget about it when they win. In that respect Trump and Biden are twins.

Plus, you don't want to do what would be needed to retire that debt....some would say it's not necessarily a good idea to not have a certain level of debt as THE SUPERPOWER.
