The metaphor is a bit facetious perhaps, but I thought it fitting with all the arguing back and forth I was witnessing the day I wrote this. (Plus, I am primarily a poet. We add metaphor. It’s a poet thing. I was curious to see how people would respond to the style in which I wrote this article. Thank you for your feedback on that.)

I agree with your points comparing the two parties. The Republican party has truly devolved.

The Democrats did what they had to do. I think they did it fairly well. Let’s see what happens in the Senate. I am disappointed to see that not ONE Republican spoke against the party agenda and appeared to be making decisions based on conscience.

Thank you so much for reading and for your thoughtful comments.
