They didn’t codify Roe vs Wade when Obama had a supermajority, they could’ve raised the minimum wage any time between the 90s and now, etc.

They want to keep things on the table in order to be able to run on them.

You mean that super majority that lasted only long enough to get the Affordable Care Act done and even then only after like ten Joe Manchins had to be appeased first?

The dems have had all three branches for maybe ten percent of all that time since the 90s and even then only barely.

This would not be a problem if y’all spent half the energy turning out that you do complaining about what happened because everyone else did.

You say that as if they can’t work on more than one piece of legislation at a time. They have aides and staffers! They have the manpower to do two things at once!

Do you actually know for a fact that that’s enough manpower to work on multiple major pieces of legislation at the same time, or do you just want to say that because you wamt be amgy?

Thanks for affirming you don’t know how fighting for votes on controversial legislation works.
