That sentence alone proves how totally corrupt your "system" is and how brainwashed you Americans are. The RINO party is nothing more than Democrats light pretending to be the "opposition party"....
Sure. If you ignore policy differences in:
• Taxes
• Civil rights (including minority rights, gay rights, fighting racism etc)
• Education
• Abortion
• Infrastructure spending
• Gun control
• Environment
• The validity of regulation
• Energy policy
• Dealing with poverty
• Safety nets
• Health care
• Family medical leave
• Monetary policy
• Fiscal policy
• Drug policy
• How to interpret the Constitution
• Immigration / how to handle unauthorized immigration
• Emphasizing federal/central government over state and local governments
• The basic size, scope and function of government
Certainly, there is some overlap on some topics. At the same time, there are significant differences not just between parties, but within the parties themselves (albeit less in the Republican party, which has spent years driving away moderates).
E.g. the Democratic party has been split for many years over free trade. The Republican party has been primarily in favor of free trade, but also has paroxysms of protectionism. Foreign policy is in a similar condition, with both parties having some hawks, while the Democrats also have an anti-war wing, and the Republicans have an isolationist wing. Activists in both parties are now pushing for prison reform; both parties generally support the EITC.
Contrary to your shrieks of agony, it is actually a
good thing for the parties to occasionally agree, work together, compromise. In fact, the lack of cooperation due to policy differences is downright harmful right now.
a party which after the 2014 victory promptly delivered to Obama everything he wanted and some. This happened right after the naive American voters gave the RINO's a solid majority in Congress.
Have you lost your mind?
The obstructionism exhibited by Congressional Republicans over the past 8 years is off the scale. They did everything they could to stop health care reform; they preferred to shut down government altogether rather than authorize borrowing for spending they already approved; they did everything possible to avoid confirming judicial appointments, including to the SCOTUS... the list goes on. Republicans have an instant knee-jerk reaction of opposition to anything Obama proposes, even when it's something Republicans themselves have stated they support (e.g. switching Social Security COLA adjustments to chained CPI).
Spare us your nonsensical propaganda.
When a Bush hugs a Clinton and conspires against a Republican candidate, you know you have a problem.
That problem is that Trump is a demagogue who is profoundly unfit to be President.
And in case you somehow failed to notice, this type of reaction by members of a party against its own candidate is
unprecedented. The closest analogue is Teddy Roosevelt's 3rd party run, over 100 years ago.
In ordinary circumstances, however, ex-Presidents usually get along in part because of a shared experience, and in part because they respect a system that allows for a peaceful transfer of power.
So please don't insult me with your naive Civics 101....
You mean, I should forget obvious facts about party divisions
and US history
and rampant and growing partisan differences, so I share your deliberate ignorance? Pass.
