...but I would like something to happen and it looks like current crop of Republicans can't make compromises because they are afraid of their constituents. Helluva way to run a country.

It's actually worse than that. Before we had competent politicians (like McConnell) becoming afraid to enrage their woefully-misinformed constituents (who read Breitbart, Gateway Pundit, and similar rubbish, and have FOX news on the TV in the background all day). But now those misinformed people are becoming elected officials (like MTG).

Though I think it was Newt who started the "no negotiating" faction in the Congress (30 years ago), and it's still alive and well.
