You're right.

I should lower my expectations when we give Democrats the majority in Congress and the presidency, because nothing they promised is going to happen. And even though they have plenty of power to make meaningful change, it's always going to be the Republicans' fault that they didn't.

You should probably learn the difference between the House of Representatives and the Senate and what their respective jobs are before embarrassing yourself in a public forum.

After that you can move on to current events and political news so maybe you can grok why your belief that Democrats "have plenty of power to make meaningful change" is so laughable.

I wont get my hopes up though. Best wishes from BC.

If only people could eat excuses for why Democrats don't wield power when they have it. Student lunch debt would no longer exist.
