The apocalyptic framing is really striking compared to the boring reality of 2020: win a Senate majority with any Democrat in the White House and you'll get some modest reform legislation and good judges. Lose the Senate and you get second-term Obama again.https://twitter.com/LukewSavage/status/1234551829511450625 …

Yes, but it could have been better! We should have had single payer, but Obama wanting it wouldn't be enough for some Dems in both house and Senate. They had 60 senators until Kennedy died, but were stopped by threat of filibuster by Dem senators.

And yet they passed it anyway, because they had a majority and could control the bills that got a floor vote. Something we have a huge problem with now.
