Over the course of the 2016 Presidential election, many Americans wondered if members of the Republican Party would begin to turn on each other. According to assertions from The Atlantic, this is already happening. The lack of progress has infuriated many member of the GOP House and Senate. One Congressperson made the following statement: "We’re in charge, right? We have the House, the Senate, and the White House. Everyone’s still committed to making progress on big issues, but the more time goes by, the more difficult that becomes. And then the blame game starts." Republicans are running into continuous problems because they believe their way is the only way and not enough of them are willing to compromise for the greater good and engender meaningful progress. Some Republicans are more conservative, while others are moderate. Each of these groups will have to come to the realization that no one faction will get everything they want. House and Senate Republicans will have to meet in the middle and cease condemnation of those who do not agree with them on every single policy issue.
