To be fair, the Democrats had control of Congress during an earlier term too (2009-2011), and in that term they passed the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). When was the last time the Republicans passed anything beneficial at all, let alone as beneficial as the ACA?
They could have passed medicare for all. They didn’t. Their health insurance handlers told them to go with a bipartisan approach, negotiating with Rs and we ended up with the ACA. Which is still health insurance we pay for.
