> Do you want to punish the other team, or get back to doing the country's work?
Could you help me understand—is "running against the ACA for a decade and then having no workable plan for its replacement when you're finally in charge" an example of 'punishing the other team' or an example of 'doing the country's work'?
> having no workable plan for its replacement when you're finally in charge
Who exactly was "in charge" in 2017 and 2018? It seemed to me that there was not one united faction, nor any coalition, that on a number of popular issues could form a majority over that time period.
It seems like it is the normal course of things for the lower and upper representative houses to represent what they will, and for that either to produce or preclude new policy.
