Somebody that still doesn’t have a super majority But a simple majority.
If Democrats don’t sign on board, he still can’t make law. One still needs 2/3 in the house. 218 isn’t 2/3
Last I checked, the House is a simple majority (50% +1) to pass a bill; they only need 2/3rds to override a veto. The Senate needs 60 for cloture to avoid a filibuster, but it’s still a simple majority to pass a bill after a cloture vote.

I’m probably getting them mixed up and backwards. I know it’s not as easy as we would like. I know that much. A super majority would be a whole lot better. However it is we would still need some democrats to sign on to get things rolling. And they won’t do anything to help. They are obstructionists to the max. Commie bastiges
