    Even if the Democrats had a filibuster-proof majority, any legislation they passed could still be vetoed by Trump. To overturn that they’d need 67 Senate seats plus two thirds of the House (and if they had that they could impeach and remove him outright).

        Maybe. Remember that the oligarchs control our media. Wonder why it sounds like Demorats never get anything done and Republicans strangely get a pass? And why so many people hate whatever the Democrat nominee for President is?
