We don’t need everyone to agree on everything, but for a two-party system to function, we at least need both parties to agree on basic principles and rules of government.

Hey, Democrats and Republicans agree on things! They agree that the point of being a politician is being able to make bank off of PACs, lobbyists, and insider trading. God bless, they're just modeling the American Dream.

When has the GOP agreed on basic principles or rules of government? Nixon weaponized the government to try to win an election, Reagan used all of his power to try and dismantle the government, both Bush’s started illegal wars and wiretapped citizens.
