It took 51. The opposition party isn’t supposed to be made up entirely of lunatics, so normally it would be possible to win some of them over when some Democrats stand in the way of progress.

The system works when the people work, but a lot of the people are broken.

This is really the issue. The Founding Fathers designed our system on the assumption of good faith by participants in the system, perhaps assuming that the country would always retain its idealism and fervor for Enlightenment. Question is, how do we redo it to account for bad faith, and then how do we get it through with the bad faith participants we have now?
