    Then vote Democrat across the board. He needs a majority in both the House and Senate for some of those, and a super majority to go against the Supreme Court afaik.

    Voting matters. If you want results, Biden needs the numbers.

      Joe Biden is trapped in the White House. The Republicans refuse to let him out unless he pardons Donald Trump and let him be president. He needs your help but we can help him stop the Republicans from taking over the country.

      All he needs is the 16 digits on the front of your mom’s credit card, as well as the 3 digits on the back but you must hurry, he doesn’t have much time.

      You mean like all those other times Democrats had majorities and, checks notes, delivered milquetoast Republican bills?

        You mean that one time for 3 months during Obamas term, where they were focused on trying to get Healthcare reform in? Because there’s no other time in recent history where the dems controlled both houses with a dem potus

          Democrats had control of the senate, house of reps and presidency from jan 20th '21 to jan 3 23.

          the current GOP control happened after the midterms in '22, at which point all progress stopped on, basically anything short of the most basic level of governance.

          Yeah actually, because what we got was a repackaged healthcare bill that was written by none other than Obama’s presidential opponent Mitt Romney. It was a fucking godsend to insurance companies and hasn’t actually improved health outcomes for the average American. In fact if the current burnout working people in the Healthcare profession is anything to go by, this age of insurance is diametrically opposed to serving the public.

          Or we could talk about Clinton’s pull yourself up by your boots straps impact on social safety nets and gutting of Wall Street and bank regulations maybe?

            Even with its warts and all, the ACA is a godsend compared to what we had before, and even that barely passed.
