Why does the GOP have so much of a problem with keeping members in line? Pelosi never did, They voted as a solid block with no defections. What's the difference?
Answer is simple...there are members of the GOP with integrity who want NOTHING tangible. They cannot be bribed with a quid pro quo of "you give me money for this and I give you money for that"
They do not want "stuff", they want the opposite of stuff...they want a balanced budeget and to shut down agencies. They want to NOT spend money. They want to balance the budget.
It is hard to sway somebody who wants nothing.
Democrats can always be bribed, they will always say..."Hey, I think your project is a total waste of money, but if I vote for yours, will you vote for mine?" And the answer is always "yeah, sure" and it results in 1500 page CR's
And for the Democrats/Left/Liberal/Progressive/Socialist/Communist/Woke, there is always a deal to be made...because they never worry about the money or how much they spend...because it is not their money...it is the taxpayers money...or worse...they believe the government can simply print money and there will be no consequences.
I technically don't have a problem shutting down the Government...AFTER...they get Trump in office so he can start using the Executive Branch's power to slam closed the Border.
C'mon boys and girls. Accept Johnson and then have your fight.

“Absolutely no”
Self awareness.
While making one of at least half a dozen trips to the local Lowe’s with The Prodigal today, I saw a typical ‘lib-mobile’. With the following bumper stickers plastered all over the ‘tailgate’;
Anti Trump,
anti Desantis,
Hippie flower power stickers all over the vehicle,
Eat the right not animals,
‘MILF’ - Mostly I Love Felines, Tailgating is a tiny dick move,
No human is illegal,
and ‘Coexist’ made from gay, queer, and transgender symbols
There was one more that just blew my mind, because it demonstrates a complete lack of self awareness;
“Anyone who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities."
A variation of the following quote from Voltaire (François-Marie Arouet):
“Certainement celui qui a le pouvoir de vous rendre absurde a le pouvoir de vous rendre injuste”
— more literally translated as: “Certainly anyone who has the power to make you believe absurdities has the power to make you commit injustices.”
