You keep saying that, but you can't define what a win looks like. Because all you want looks like a big L right no. The current MAGA or whatever it is is incoherent and seems to be that its really about owning the other side . Realize that with divided government wherein you control 1 house by 2-3 votes means you play ball with the other side because they will hang that intransigence on you for the next election. The only way you win is the way that Johnson and before McCarthy are playing the game. Your only victories thus far have been spectacle with literally nothing of value to show for it.

Where are the wins? How do you think you win with a 2 seat margin in the House , a minority position in the Senate and the Presidency in Democrat hands? Plus a nominee for President fighting 4 trials that distracts him overall? I'm seeing at best a tie score right now with Biden and the Democrats playing ball control and doing it at 4 yards a pop. With a defense wearing out and playing prevent.

Neither can the Republican Party. Everything they have done basically since 9/11/2001 has been a huge loss for ordinary Americans.

A "win" for me at this point is a sharknado consuming Washington DC and all in it.

YOU DON'T GIVE THE DEMS EVERYTHING THEY WANT!! You make them compromise. And don't use the deciding VOTE to screw the American public.

You think either of them have instilled confidence in the leadership of the Republican party by giving in to EVERY Democrat demand. Republican voters are freaking tired of the "all talk" Republicans. You know the one's that tell you what their going to do to be tough on the opposing party and then turn tail at the first sign of a fight. Why couldn't Mike Johnson step to a podium somewhere and say, "I told my constituents I would NOT PASS another omnibus and we couldn't come to an agreement with Democrats so at this point the government will be shutting down because of the Democrat party." Own the narrative.

You're freaking blind then. The Republican party is down by 40 with a minute to play because Johnson keeps throwing the ball to the other team.
