If you have NYTimes Select, which you should, you can read this article on how the Republicans say there are pluses to the current Democratic control of Congress. You know like when your boyfriend dumps you, you say that this is actually a good thing because you really wanted to focus on your career right now anyway. Democrats' Rise Has Pluses, Say G.O.P. Centrists - New York Times.
The article focuses on the Republican centrists and moderates who are being treated better under Democratic control then they ever were under a very conservative Republican controlled Congress. So instead of being the red-headed stepchild you can't stand and want to send to military school, they are the red-headed full biological child that you love but is not your favorite.
I don't have a picture of a donkey and elephant together, so you get an orangutan and tiger.
