Would love to see how this meme would look if democrat presidents ever got a democrat majority... You know... Like republicans keep getting thanks to voter suppression and gerrymandering.
Yeah like that time Obama had it?
Man I've been debunking that argument for years now. Yay propaganda power.
So the long story short is, he had the count on paper, but a series of different members from his party being incapacitated due to injury, illness, and old age, as well as a few DINOs (Democrats in name only) who preferred to vote with the Republicans, meant he never really had an actual majority on the hill. But yes on paper.
Right, because Manchin is not a democrat when it matters.
