When was the last time the Democrats held 50+ percent in both houses to pass legislation without needing to cooperate? Believe it was Obama for 2 months in 2009. So all complaining about this for the last decade has been moot.

We had exactly 60 seats for all of like two effective weeks in 2009, due to various issues. And not only that, a good portion of the dems in that coalition were blue dogs - senators from IA, ND, IN, and MO.

People acting like we've had 30+ Bernies in the caucus are weird.

We're poopooing Obama having the largest majority since reconstruction? Come the fuck on. What have the Republicans been doing with way less "power"? Democrats are useless.
