They haven't had enough senate seats to have a hand in anything for over a decade. 48 or less for 6 consecutive whole congresses.

The opposition is literally killing people.

Why do you think that is? Do you think the fact that they fought harder against Bernie than Trump have anything to do with it?

They impeached trump, they gave third party Bernie a spot in their primaries and be came in second place by about 3 Million votes in 2016 and 9 Million votes in 2020.
