No, because the next problem will be the filibuster. So, it’ll be, “we can’t do anything despite having a Republican President, House, and Senate, because we don’t have 60.” Then it’ll be the Supreme Court. “Well, we can’t win until we get at least 5 on our side.” They said the same thing in 2010. We can’t do anything with 1/2 of 1/3. Then in 2014 they said well we have the Senate and House, but we can’t do anything until 2016. Same tired old argument.

Pretty simple strategy: go nuclear early and get some bills on Obama’s desk for the veto.

After the vetoes, strike a “can’t we all get along pose” and let the Dems filibuster anything they want.

Mission 1 should be to get those irrevocable vetoes on the record rather than hanging out around as a vague threat.
