Again, neither the Republican party nor the Democratic party are monolithic on this, nor should they be.

This is the political process. It will go back and forth until both sides can arrive at a compromise suitable to both. If neither side is willing to compromise, we are in for a long wait.

We got to this situation because Democrats were unwilling to compromise in the first place, which is why Obamacare was passed in both houses with ZERO Republican votes. That put on on this road, and it will take some doing to find an exit agreeable to both parties.

"The decision to remove Mr. Scaramucci, who had boasted about reporting directly to the president not the chief of staff, John F. Kelly, came at Mr. Kelly’s request, the people said. Mr. Kelly made clear to members of the White House staff at a meeting Monday morning that he is in charge."

Maybe the morale is, Don't Fuck With The Former Marine Chief Of Staff.

Alabama Race

This is another flare up of this long conflict, after Bannon succumbed to a palace coup he wants to demonstrate that he could derail GOP establishment effort. If he can show TP-like energy behind his movement, he quite likely will be able to dictate GOP agenda.

If Trump sides with Bannon, he will likely ride this wave into re-election. However, it is unlikely anything on his legislative agenda would happen. Plus, he will lose his majorities during next round.

Bannon won, his candidate ended up winning primaries as an underdog. GOP civil war just entered another hot phase.

As of late, GOP can't even agree on keeping deficit in check. So what do they stand for now? More guns, jails and anti-abortion?

Something like that, yeah.

There is no greater political disaster than having one party control both houses of congress and the executive. Pendulum swinging harder and faster now, will be interesting to see the blowback from GOP failboating over next few years.

Interesting in the Chinese curse sense.
