Bernie and Warren were definitely contributers to making Biden move on minimum wage,
but everyone who actually remembers when the Democrats had the majority knows better than that
the democrats did not have the overwhelming majority (60) that can surpass a filibuster, and yeah, the big-tentism hurts to an extent with more conservative democrats, but the states they come from don’t have a lot of alternatives in terms of what type of politician is going to get voted.
Democrats have the power to stop Trump right now, which they’re failing to do
Trump is engaging in a lot of bypassing that the judicial branch should be taking care of, but the judicial branch is compromised. They could in theory prevent bills that require overwhelming majorities yes.
They can and should protest it, but a lot of it is on the judicial branch saying no and reversing demands by the executive branch
