There has always been party politics and people that would only vote for candidates of one party but I don't remember there being a time that the two parties were so far apart and opposed to each other. We have a congress where the Democrats as a block have decided to totally oppose ANYTHING that Trump and/or the Republicans do. Years past when the Democrats held the majority they screamed and bellyhooed like crazy when Republicans voted to oppose them clambering how they were just obstructionist and how that was such a bad thing. Now they are doing the exact same thing and yet you don't hear it mentioned in negative terms anymore.
Maybe its time that both parties started thinking about he people that elected them and not as much bout themselves.
