Their examples of bipartisanship includes 3 republicans siding with Pres Obama, 1 republican siding with Obama, etc.

Bipartisanship in the Senate lets bills pass 97-2 or stats like that. We haven't seen bipartisanship in politics since the Iraq war after 9-11. Once that coalition broke down, the Congress, and the nation has devolved into partisan haggling and demonization/denunciation of the other side has become the norm.

If 3 republicans make a bill bipartisan, than the tax bill and Gorsuch's confirmation were shining examples. They were not.

Could it have been stronger...yes, but the hyperbole that gop were just obstructionists is a false narrative. Also...think about it this way...the GOP in good faith refused to be lock step in rolling back Obamacare with trump.

Folks think for yourself and don’t feed into false narratives pushed mainly by the media. It doesn’t add up when you look at facts.

The reality is that the Republicans in Congress, other than obstructing (Trump and Obama), can't agree on nearly anything, and when they do it's usually watered down Democratic mush. The Democrats in Congresswalk in lockstep when they are in power, and when they are out. Bush/Obama/Trump haven't swayed the Democratic block anyway that the party didn't want them to go.

It's not in good faith that Republicans refused to be in lock step, it's simply that there isn't a unified Republican ideal. In a sense, that has helped them win so many governors and house races. It's easier to win local elections if you are running on local issues. Look at the upcoming SC confirmations. Schumer (or a different party head) said as much, if you are a Democrat you need to risk your seat for the party. There isn't one Republican congressman that would dare make that statement, because their constituent base isn't the national media, but their local flavor of republicanism.

G1 I obviously said there were many times where there was cooperation between gop and obama admin. That’s basically it, just refer to my posted article.

Nobody said they never bashed Obama or anything to do with him, but I think the sphere of attacks is larger now. What i mean is if you are a trump supporter in congress or running for congress you are going to face a lot more accusations and scrutiny then most dems faced simply for supporting Obamas policies.

There isnt a metric to prove this so no point in arguing it, it is just this trumpeteer's opinion.
