    The Democrats have had the majority in relatively recent years

    You mean the two years they controlled the executive and legislative branches, but not the judicial, under Obama?

        It would if Obama didn’t have several members of his own party working against his agenda. But then I’m sure you knew that.

            Your point was that the Democrats had the majority and did nothing to deal with the threat because they weren’t united with the president and so any attempt would have failed?

            Not sure why you brought it up in the first place then.
