      Theory: if any other Republican had won the presidency, they could pass a health care bill. Trump heightens their internal contradictions.

      A drama-free GOP presidency, without constant Twitter meltdowns and treason accusations, could probably streamline the legislative process.

          Paradoxically, GOP voters knowingly chose an agent of chaos in Trump, and rejected the "respectable," governing-oriented conservatives.

          This means that they weren't especially interested in sober governance or incremental policy gains. That's not why you choose Trump.

          You choose Trump because you're willing to make a tradeoff: Culture War fury and Reality TV drama instead of a practicable governing agenda.

          Absolutely true, but wouldn't solve the internal contradictions separating moderate GOPers from radicals, esp where healtcare is concerned.

          Alternative theory: DJT drama gives cover to GOP bc its a distraction. Without it, there'd be even more coverage of healthcare & other leg

          That would require a president who isn't a toddler and doesn't seem to have something to hide when it comes to Russia.

          I would agree with this theory if, 1) GOP didn't have 7 years to work out an effective repeal bill no matter who the president is, and 1/2

          Do you think they are more successful quietly passing things back stage to the frenzy? They seem light on him cos he likes to sign things.

          The GOP have been getting some bills passed pretty quickly. It is obvious support of a bill is more important than twitter meltdowns.
