Will Government parties ever be able to work together again, or is that a thing of the past?

Asked by SQUEEKY2 (23475points) September 20th, 2020

Or will it just be blaming the other party for everything wrong from now on?

They work together all the time and do atrocious things. Bipartisanship is a nightmare. We need a real opposition party.

If/when we are able to rid our congress of career, corrupt politicians? Term limits? Yes our parties will work together for the good of “the people’! Definitely.

Most of the corrupt representatives ARE working together, to pretend to be in conflict and put on a dramatic show to distract voters from the fact that most of them are corrupt and actually all servants of the oligarchy and corporate interests.

I wonder if Moscow Mitch gets his Putin Check once a month or every two weeks? ?

When the aliens land. The US needs an outside enemy to be united. Sad. The parties sure together here and there, but on big issues that get a lot of media coverage they have to deal with saving face bullshit.

I think they will when we get the great divide out of office.

Everyone should read @Zaku ‘s answer and memorize it. The 2 political parties have been enormously successful in the single enterprise to which they are truly dedicated. That enterprise in a nutshell is the denial of political opportunity to all other parties or factions. Nothing may be achieved minus the endorsement of or visible co-option by one of the 2 parties. Trump is President because he had to pick one of the 2. And he of course picked the one notorious for embracing the wackos.
