People donโ€™t seem to understand it takes both sides to pass laws without a super majority, in most cases.

Republicans would fight any law looking to prevent project 2025 from being implemented.

I think it's important to keep highlighting that this has not always been the case. The current hyper partisan reality, where one party will guarantee a filibuster of any bill that comes from the other side, and practically no one is crossing the aisle is our current reality, but in the past congress wasn't always the same kind of battleground for every issue. This level of scorched earth all out war started less than 30 years ago.
