The spotlight right now should be on the Ds, since they are the party in power.
And there is a lot of extremist nonsense and nuttiness in the D party right now.
Look at the D party media like CNN.

Senate + Supreme Court == Congress + President

Its not the Rs fault that the Ds have conflicts and disagreements over what to do with their control of government.

Democrats playing to govern is not quite an equal match. It is asymmetrical politics. It would be the same as Communist strategy in the Soviet Union or Mao's China. They played to win and control absolutely.
