We need to make our political leaders work together.
Government doesn’t “work together”.
You still have a lot to learn.

The only bad thing the Republicans have done is to spend like Dems. With Dems in charge, it can only get worse.

In the words of Thomas Jefferson:
”That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.”

Notice the need for coercion. Leftie fascists just can’t stand “free people making free choices”; they have to mandate, compel and command. That’s why they are so power-hungry.

I like Chris Rock’s idea of bullet control.
Because with $5,000 bullets, there are no innocent bystanders.

More Thomas Jefferson:
“Christianity ... (has become) the most perverted system that ever shone on man. ... Rogueries, absurdities and untruths were perpetrated upon the teachings of Jesus by a large band of dupes and importers ...”
Six Historic Americans, by John E. Remsberg
“In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot...”
Thomas Jefferson letter to Horatio G. Spafford, 1814. ME 14:119
“Where the preamble declares, that coercion is a departure from the plan of the holy author of our religion, an amendment was proposed by inserting “Jesus Christ,” so that it would read “A departure from the plan of Jesus Christ, the holy author of our religion;” the insertion was rejected by the great majority, in proof that they meant to comprehend, within the mantle of its protection, the Jew and the Gentile, the Christian and Mohammedan, the Hindoo and Infidel of every denomination.”

The right has failed miserably.
Detroit.
There’s one of your testbeds.
You are very intimate with failure.
