  Republicans are the ones who broke Congress.  They have no intention of fixing it.

  History suggests that the procedural plans of the new House Republican majority are likely to lead to more gridlock and legislative instability, not less.

  That implies they want to fix congress. >
  
  They probably do as long as it's: the illegal or underhand influencing of the outcome of something such as a race, match, or election. >

  They couldn't even prepare a house speaker so who in their right minds would think that they could "fix Congress"?

  We’ll see tomorrow, but I would imagine that all of last week they were so focused on the speaker vote that they probably didn’t hash out / lock a vote on the rules at all. I really doubt they’ve reconciled the establishment republicans demands and all his concessions to MAGA (and the incompatibilities between those two things) in 2 days. 
  The GOP knows that after last weeks debacle they need to look unified and orderly, and the fastest route to that is a first vote rules package passing. There is no way they are not aware of that. So if they can’t pass it tomorrow we know we are looking at some deep, deep dysfunction. Who knows what right wing media will tell us we’re looking at if that happens. Probably more “this is actually good”.
  It’ll be an interesting day tomorrow, it will be a significant temperature check on the next two years. >
  
  Do they mean fix as in neuter? Republicans aren’t actually capable of solving problems—just causing them.
