If there were any reality where Dems had enough votes for single payer then he as president absolutely would have signed it into law with no hesitation.
You’re basically speaking in tongues about choices people did not make in alternate dimensions.
And you’re pretending the president couldnt have worked toward it, and that the only thing he can do is whats handed to him on a silver platter with all the votes ready to go. That thing he is missing is called leadership. The president is supposed to be the leader of the party and is supposed to push forward the party platform, not wait in his chair like a noble waiting to be handed a message that he has won something.
He didnt even try to work toward it. We needed a leader and we got a right leaning dealmaker with a lifelong fear of criticism from the right and a fetish for making republicans happy and feeling like he’s on his own side and who cares what his partys platform is.
They literally couldn’t have. There have been more GOP than DNC for his entire term. Independents and VP were enough to be a tiebreaker and give majority leader, but they still didn’t have enough votes because the USA citizens repeatedly keep choosing not to fix things.
