Reich: Republicans can’t govern and Democrats can’t fight

Once again Reich nails it in this FB post. See it for the details.

"Democrats legislate. Republicans fulminate. [...] Republicans don’t have a clue how to govern. They’re hopeless at developing and implementing public policies or managing government. They can’t even agree on basics like how to respond to the pandemic or what to replace Obamacare with. Meanwhile, the central competence of the Democratic party is running government – designing policies and managing the system. Once in office, Democrats spend countless hours cobbling together legislative and regulatory initiatives. They overflow with economic and policy advisers, programs, plans and goals. But  Democrats are lousy at bare-knuckles political fighting."

I guess that's why I've taken up the challenge to be a bare-knuckles political fighter. It's a bloody business but somebody's gotta do it.
