    You are elected to represent all the people from the District that voted you into office not a race.
    Agree. Can you imagine if white groups started to form? The wailing and gnashing of teeth that would happen. The 24/7 press coverage about white groups being KKK affiliated?

    Consider the recent reaction to "white Lives Matter" on a T-shirt.

    That is how they avoid intelligent debate but commitment to disagree is another means to the same end.
    The shut down is a sign of not having any grounds to debate on and should be exposed as such.
    But there are places we agree , like term limits, but we are taught to defriend the other party in real life. Who does that serve? Bipartisan reptiles in a DC swamp.
