Nothing about this is based in truth.
I won't bother with the rest, but in the past 15 years Dems have only had 2 years of a "trifecta" while republicans have had 4.
Dems have had more presidential terms, the senate has been split, and Republicans have held the House for 11 of the past 15 years. The Supreme Court has been a Republican majority the whole 15 years (with an exception of a tie after Scalia died).
Republicans have the incredible ability to have overwhelming control and agency yet still act like the victims.
EDIT: In response to your edit... you claim Republicans exist solely to keep Democrats in check, and then you list a bunch of things Democrats weren't able to accomplish because they were blocked by Republicans. Your logic is that Dems are bad because they couldn't make certain things happen, but those things were all blocked by Republicans.
- lovich 15d agoHe’s literally doing the meme of republicans stopping democrats from legislating and then pointing to the lack of legislation as why they should be blocked. Also lol at the trifecta for 15 years comment from him.

- xp84 14d agoI’m talking about in California! If you want to know what Democrats are capable of accomplishing, look to the state where they have had carte blanche to do whatever they want. California is their testing platform.
