They have the majority in literally everything and they still have failed to pass so many bills because they are that incompetent.

The Republicans are doing the equivalent of giving themselves money in a monopoly game and saying "hey there's no rule that says I CAN'T do that, is there?" Like when they sat on their hands rather than voting on Obama's scotus pick for months. I don't know what you do about that other than matching the egregious actions, and it seems dems are still trying to play inside the rules which I agree is a losing strategy.

That's one thing I'm really aligned with the DSA on, democrats need to break the rules too or have extremely harsh punishments for it once they're in power, so Republicans know to cut it out or they're either out of office or in jail.
