Dems also had a trifecta in 2021-2023 as well.
There wasn’t (and still isn’t, sadly) political appetite for ending the Senate filibuster, so reform is limited to Byrd rule nonsense.
The ~5 months Democrats had an a functional supermajority under Obama in 2009/10 was used to get the ACA passed as written.
