Republicans now control Congress, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court. Still can't pass any new legislation. If the democrats had this level of support they'd be well on their way to bulldozing the opposition with the Nuclear Option, several new Supreme Court cases, and presidential overreach. The Nuclear Option would allow them to bring an end to the filibuster. New Supreme Court cases would let them overturn things like Citizens United, and stop voter I.D. laws. Presidential overreach would be fairly easy since nobody is going to take you to court when the court is in your favor. Just run about as president making multiple shady executive orders until the cows come home (Trump has already done this).
