When was the last time the Democrats held 50+ percent in both houses to pass legislation without needing to cooperate? Believe it was Obama for 2 months in 2009. So all complaining about this for the last decade has been moot.
Pushed to have the American Care act get through, then it got gutted and turned to a piece of shit by the time it got anywhere. If he had 2 months of that in say 2012 or 2013 it may have been different, but it was the first weeks of him holding the presidency and we quickly saw racism rise all around us. If he would have walked on the door with a Project 2009 with teams of people ready to drop in place maybe it would different. But by the time the guy knew where his coffee mug was and made sure his kids were safe, support was gone.
And the representative majority has not supported a health care system to fix anything since. So we sit in degradation
Negative. Not one time since 2009 was the house and the Senate majority Democrat. Yes hey would need 60 for the Senate, but they haven’t met the material to even fight for 60
With Harris serving as the tie breaker in her constitutional role as President of the Senate, Democrats gained control of the Senate, and thereby full control of Congress for the first time since the 111th Congress ended in 2011. Additionally, with the inauguration of Joe Biden as president that same day, Democrats assumed control of the executive branch as well, attaining an overall federal government trifecta, also for the first time since the 111th Congress.
It was the 117th Congress from 2021-2023. Y’know when Roe V Wade was overturned, the DHS was “rebuilding” after COVID, Nicaragua was getting regime changed, etc.

And what the fuck did Obama do with those 2 months?

I assume you mean 60+ to break filibuster.
And weren’t a lot of them solid conservatives too (not like Manchin, further right)? Hence why pro-choice laws were never solidified.

Most of the people complaining loudly about this were toddlers last time it happened.
Hell I was born in 89’ and just made the cut off for voting in the 2008 by a year. Had no say in the Bush era
