The majority of Americas problems are a result of GOP policy failures.
Republicans can't accept this, and they try and spin/divert blame to the Democrats for "not doing enough to stop these problems" Even though these problems are caused by the GOP, escalated by the GOP, AND most importantly when a democrat opposes this GOP failed policy, they get attacked viciously by republicans and Fox News alike.
