   As I have stated many times, the republicans have never been in lockstep like   
   the democrats are.   
   And the MAGA movement although a good thing IMHO has divided the party even   
   more   
   between the straight line republicans and the MAGA republicans.   
      
   The democrats problem is going far left while many old time republicans still   
   remain but even so, at least up until recently, they still manage to vote party   
   line.   
      
   The republicans have Murkowski, Collins and the usual suspects who oppose   
   everything and might as well declare themselves democrats.   
   With the slim margin that is all it takes to lose.   
      
   Then you have the inept, either for a reason or just the way it is   
   endless investigations by the republicans.   
   They manage to bungle every single one of them and the MAGA loyal   
   are getting tired of hearing Jim Jordan, Comer and others appearing on   
   Fox claiming, "we've got them this time", when it's just bull.   
      
   Along those lines, Bondi and Patel need to go.   
   They are flaccid and ineffective and I suspect at least with Bondi there   
   is more behind her poor decisions IMHO.   
   How is it possible to bungle every case presented to the DOJ?   
   Seems suspicious to me.
