Or bothI suspect many of these leaving just might be part of one or the other.
FTFY YesSo we should decapitate to the uniparty?
Not everyone has taken the bait on this "uniparty" bit. It implies that any movement that isn't aligned with the purest interpretation of ideology is essentially the same as the other end of the spectrum. That a D majority and an R majority produce the same thing. It isn't true and completely denies the reality of having only a House majority. People can feign outrage every time, but they can't expect everyone to embrace a shut it down until we get our way approach, the same as you wouldn't had Pelosi shut down the government in 2019 to get all of her demands met.So we should capitulate to the uniparty?

Usually, "uniparty" gets thrown out when someone on the fringe doesn't get their way and blames others for not making it happen.

Are they that different?Platforms and agendas have changed so much over the last 50 years or longer, that no one truly knows who they support and vote for.
I stopped buying this line after 2016 - 2018. Republicans had the House, Senate, and the Executive branch.Not everyone has taken the bait on this "uniparty" bit.

Three letters for you, HPA. They couldn't even get that done.
There are few meaningful differences between the parties other than playing one group of serfs off another.
That period is one reason I have elected to only support those who I assess as being constitutionalists. If the candidate does not reference the Constitution and demonstrate a commitment to it they don't get my vote. If they are an incumbent, I check their voting history. I don't care what letter is after their name any longer.
All but a few incumbents are functionally indistinguishable from the other party when looking at votes over time ( cough, Young, cough).
Now from a party platform perspective there is a substantial difference. Sadly however; there does not appear to be any effort to hold those running under the Republican banner to that platform (cough, Shreve, cough).
Maybe I’ve changed…Are they that different?
