4. we also saw the election cut his prosecution off

...while he was prosecuting Trump in an actual court.

This reminds me of people who blame Democrats every time the numbers of our elected aren't sufficient to pass legislation, even when Dems vote unanimously.

Bottom line there is that Dems might not produce what we want for us in a slim majority where filibuster rules prevent them passing bills with a simple majority, but it's not because they didn't do their jobs and vote the right way.

Doesn't keep people from coming at them with a misrepresentation or disregard of what the actual obstacles to success were at the time.

But their stamping feet and insisting without proof or explanation that the outcome could have been different - in the face of evidence that it could not - is the stuff of tantrums, not debate.
