I was getting the sense that you were more upset about GOP obstructionism. You will receive no argument to me that it is shameful the way that some Rs have thrown out their principles in support of a man who advocates and stands for much of what they used to claim to despise.

That has been the curious side of this election. I lost respect for Cruz and others I used to respect, and have been increasingly finding myself on the side of those I would have previously designated RINOs (mainly McCain and Graham).

That said, this is all still a bit weird for me. Trump is not a Republican and does not really seem to share traditional Republican values. He has an established history of supporting and giving $ to Democrats in far greater numbers. Unfortunately, the GOP owns him now.
