Suppose you have two parties both wanting to build a pipeline through your tribe's land, but both of which consider it a low to moderate priority. They hate each other on some other, higher priority so you vote to divide them, half from one party and half from the other, with the intention of gridlocking debate on that other priority so they don't get to the pipeline bill at all. This is a simple example, but the overall point is that tools used to put something together can also be used or "abused" to take it apart.

Never, ever rely on politicians and voting, we all understand that. What is in debate here is using something (or condeming others for using something) that although NOT reliable can throw up additional roadblocks in what our enemies are doing. Sure as hell Trump is weaker since the last election-and that might make the Wall/No Wall difference.
