Just want to throw this out there in case anyone thinks he’s being sarcastic or hyperbolic. He is not. Opposing anything Democrats do en masse by default is GOP mantra now, championed for many years by Mitch McConnell – a man once known for killing his own bill because it started getting Democrat support. Compromise and bipartisanship are considered signs of weakness in the GOP, to the point where it’s almost political suicide today to even think about it. Whatever the Democrat position on any given subject is, the GOP must rally against it. This is not sarcasm. This is not hyperbole. This is GOP dogma.
