So you are less than 14 years old?

2009-2011, they had all 4, POTUS, Senate (59 seats), House and SCOTUS.

Seriously learn some damn history. And it's extremely disingenious to claim that the Dems didn't have all 3 from 2021-2023.

Further the last time the GOP has had all 3 was in 2007. Yet, somehow they manage to get their agenda through.

I'm 34.

I said liberals not Dems.

I said liberals not Dems.

And learn some damn history yourself. Trump replaced 2 liberal justices which only requires POTUS and Senate. And we learned under Trump that it's much, MUCH easier to hurt people than to help people. Thanks everyone who refused to vote for Hillary. You did this.

You want change? Vote more liberals in. Don't want change? Keep bitching.

Yet again, with the disingenious bullshit.

Liberals = Dems

And learn some damn history yourself. Trump replaced 2 liberal justices which only requires POTUS and Senate. And we learned under Trump that it’s much, MUCH easier to hurt people than to help people. Thanks everyone who refused to vote for Hillary. You did this.

You just proved my point, dude. Look you don't need all three branches to actual produce results for your base. The Dems don't produce the results we want because they do not want to not because they're powerless.

I assume his point is that calling Manchin or Sinema "liberal" isn't super accurate.

Liberals = Dems

If you think that, you probably shouldn't talk politics. And it's probably not worth the time to talk politics with you.

You should probably learn political terms before telling people not to talk politics. Liberalism as defined by Oxford.

Oh neat. Here's the definition of political by Oxford.
