“If I remember correctly, a mere majority is how a democracy runs. We aren’t”

No issues here, I realize that the US is a constitutional republic. My issue with barone and others who have been bitching and moaning that Trump didn’t bother to get “his” border wall when he had majorities in both houses of congress is that there were not enough votes in the senate to pass an appropriation bill that included proper border security, including a border wall.

Some folks understand how it works. Others, not so much. I was frustrated at the lack of action for the first two years. I’ll probably be less frustrated for the next two since it’ll most likely be denying napa nan and her commie pals what they want.
