“Yeah but but Biden couldn’t do anything because some democratic senators were going against the party!”

It’s not like there’s a party whip whose entire purpose is making sure congress falls in line with the rest of the party, especially if the party currently holds the executive. Biden definitely couldn’t have threatened republican-voting senators with pulling their campaign funding or endorsements or brought their kids up on corruption charges.

Sorry, we just had to save all that political capital for getting Jill Stein off the ballot in Rhode Island.
