Republicans, at least, show some independence
Our elected Democratic Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy, along with Democratic Reps. Joe Courtney, Rosa DeLauro, John Larson and others serve to undermine everything that the president does. They should be booted out of office. They march in lockstep to an ultra-left narrative that they don't even bother to question, much less think about.
The accepted axiom is that the Democrats always stick together and support each other, while the Republicans tend to waver and vacillate about what is being said and done. I applaud that approach because it indicates at least some thinking is going on and that there isn't a blind allegiance to an agenda. Thinking people don't parrot others. They look at all sides of the picture or problem and speak for themselves, however unpopular it may be at that time.
