That’s why this cavalier “oh, it’s only 4 years” talk is so shocking to me. The threats to Medicare, Social Security, welfare, education, women’s health, everyone’s healthcare, global warming, the EPA and on and on are staggering.

I think y’all might be overestimating how ideologically coherent the GOP will be when it actually has to govern instead of obstruct. Senators and Congressman have to answer to constituents, which means Paul Ryan doesn’t get everyone of his ideological fantasies automatically enacted into law.
