Somehow I suspect if the Senate was Democrat and Congress was Republican that he’d be calling for the abolishment of the Senate.

Regardless there’s a certain amount of truth - the Senate, and envisioned, was the House of Lords - beholden to the states. Congress was beholden to the people. Making the senate members elected directly was stupid and made the house redundant.

LOL, I know what you mean, but I think you meant to say "If the house was Republican and the Senate was Democrat, they would be calling for the abolition of the House..."

Just a quiblle. The Congress consists of the House of Representatives and the Senate. When you write ‘Congress’, I think you mean ‘House of Representatives.’
