GitRDun's JournalRepublicans are incapable of governing
Each and every day it becomes clearer and clearer to me that the Republican party as constituted today is incapable of governing.
The Trump administration main accomplishment so far is leading a charge to destroy the instruments of government. The Republican Party confirmed each and every outrageous choice for The President's cabinet.

Pull out of the Paris accords. America is no longer capable of leading what will be a major driver of economic growth over the next several decades.
Roll back countless regulations that keep our food, air, water, financial institutions safe.
Roll back taxes on the rich, a key source of government funding going forward.
Fail to act on infrastructure. Nothing is more critical to our country's long term health.
Fail to educate our children so they can compete in a global market.
I could go on and on. They stand for nothing. They exist now only to destroy...and Trump is their ideal weapon.
