Control of the House: One Question To Ask

"Who will you caucus with?"

These supposed Moderate Republican Congressmen and women, as well as incumbent Senators only have to answer this question.

The majority party controls the floor of each branch. I don't care that occasionally you cross the aisle or once and a while question Trump. As long as you add to the total needed to form the majority, you're fucking us. The subpoenas, the oversight, the chairmen, the scheduling all reside with the majority and once you get them to 50 in the Senate or 218 in the House, you have enabled the Dictator to resume his totalitarian rule without any hinderance.

So, save me the bullshit. The only question I want answered from my candidate is "Which party will you caucus with?"
