Except the Dems have controlled the house, Senate and Presidency since 2009...

I mean. 2021-2023 Biden had House and Senate majorities...

Did I miss something?

Was it that as soon as we had a majority just enough Dems said they wouldn't vote with the party? And then party leaders saying "welp, trying would be pointless"?

Is that what I missed?

Don't get me wrong, it should work the way your meme makes it sound. But unfortunately the rich bought out both parties awhile ago.

It's why Biden and the DNC have their PAC, the Biden Victory Fund, that coordinates directly with the candidate and party, and you can give up to a million!

Like fucking clockwork. Goddamn you're so predictable.

There's a reason the right have earned the label of the poorly educated. This guy doesn't realize a simple majority in the senate isn't enough to move legislation.

It's covered endless in the political news cycles but morons cannot retain the information and spout the most banal nonsense as if they're uncovering some grand conspiracy that they aline have discovered.

If such people could feel shame they would still spread their bullshit because they don't realize how far down left side of intelligence the curve they are.

It would be entertaining if they weren't voters.

Democrats could have changed that any time they had control of the Senate with a simple majority vote.

They chose not to.
