    Without a House in the control of the same party, the Senate majority is just helpful for getting judges etc confirmed. It’s not like they could be getting us universal Healthcare if only they believed in themselves more.

      You should read articles before commenting. It’s not about passing laws and the Senate can do more than confirm judges. The Senate could be running investigations into the corruption of the Supreme Court or various other misdeeds in order to show the public they’re both going on and that Republicans are complicit.
