Republicans to play by the rules, to compromise, to meet him half way. And they never did.

We are seeing the same thing now. Republicans who don't give a flying fuck about anything except their own personal gain. Things like common decency or the common good are completely alien concepts to them. They don't care how many get hurt, how many go hungry, how many sleep outside. They only care about their tax cuts, their wealth. They have NEVER worked in a homeless shelter, or talked to a Vet completely undone by what they've been through. Worse yet, if you were to take them to a homeless shelter, sit them down with a vet, they wouldn't care, wouldn't understand the underlying humanity.

And still, they claim to be Christians.
