    They’ve had that for [drumroll please] 4 out of the last 24 years

    It was significantly shorter than that when you consider Senate control to be 60, which is what’s needed to bypass the fillibuster.

      Supermajority was 4 months, out of the last 44 years. But whenever I mention that people think I’m fixated on that for some reason.

      *Oh downvoted already. Some people really don’t like hearing this.
