It is called GOVERNING. This is not a country of one party rule as much as you would like. Democracy requires compromise not dictating. Working with the other party does not mean letting them do anything and everything they want. Especially when the REPUBLICANS in the Senate have made it clear that 30% cuts are DOA with them too.
Only wanting things their way has been the problem with the Freedom Caucus for the past 20 years. They don't want to govern, they want to dictate. They've now run off their 3rd Speaker of the House. Their goal is the chaos
I mean, in order for the Senate to pass any legislation it has to be bipartisan thanks to the filibuster. Maybe, just maybe, the House should take a cue from that.
