re: #457 Big Beautiful Door

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.

Except that the constituents that Republicans will answer to are The Koch Brothers, Adelson, Foster Fries, Peter Thiel…

And when it comes to Peter Thiel, I wonder what he will do when the Jesusbots come for him…
