IOW Dems have a razor thin majority a couple of times in the last 20 years for a 2-year period each. They are expected to pass legislation to fix every single problem in that time frame. They manage to get X, Y, and Z done in spite of Senate rules that tie one hand behind their backs and full out raging opposition by the repubs, and the response is “goddammit why didn’t you get the whole alphabet done, you assholes?”
Even worse are the ones who think the POTUS position is some kind of emperor who can just simply decree “Make it so” and boom it happens, so why hasn’t he done this or that like I want (yes I’m mixing metaphors but you get the point).
