Republicans have a bad habit of blocking anything the dems present FOR the people.

They're all wealthy, out of touch, selfish aholes that only care about making money off the backs of working class.

They work for big corporations.

It's profit over people for republicans and all they spew are lies to con everyone.

Eg We would've had stricter gun control laws but republicans blocked it.

We would've had universal healthcare but republicans blocked it.

That's right. Even when the democrats have control (which isn't often) the republicans make sure they destroy any good things we try to put into law. Then they blame everything on the former president.
