Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said Congress needs to get its act together and return to regular order, in particular because it is dealing with an “often poorly informed” and “impulsive” President Trump.
“[Our system of government] requires pragmatic problem-solving from even the most passionate partisans,” McCain said in an op-ed for the Washington Post. “It relies on compromise between opposing sides to protect the interests we share. We can fight like hell for our ideas to prevail. But we have to respect each other or at least respect the fact that we need each other.”
