re: #672 Dark_Falcon

Mine too. And I don’t see how he can act decisively now. He lost his supermajority in the Senate and some of the Dems there are becoming less willing to do as he asks. He can be as bold as he wants, but at the end of the day he needs bills that the Senate will pass.

I think the phrase “never let a good crisis go to waste” is going to continue to haunt him. Instead of taking the issues on a piecemeal basis where he could have advanced his agenda by peeling off moderate republicans they decided to get everything in one big whack.
