To Govern or not to govern

That is the question republicans will have to answer for at least the next two years.   After 10 years of being the opposition party with little or no skin in the game, the GOP now controls all the levers of power in the federal government.  The problem is many representatives and not a few senators have  made a career of obstruction and demonizing government.  They claimed the government was the problem and have steadily tried to starve it of resources and credibility.  Now they are expected to make it work.  We have a crumbling infrastructure, a rube Goldberg health care system and a top heavy military system which has funneled pork projects to conservative representatives' districts regardless of their utility.  If they approach governance in the same way they have during Obama's two terms in office, we could be facing crises in a number of different areas in short order.  Add the lack of experience and ability of Cheeto Jesus at the head of the federal bureaucracy and it is a recipe for disaster.  Rural America votes overwhelmingly for republicans and gets a far greater share of federal resources than the wealthier, democratic cities.  Now these god-fearing and democratic hating rubes will finally get what they think they voted for.  And don't they wish they will like it.  For the rest of it, when the revelation comes to them it will be cold comfort to the rest of us.
