I think he has only been able to pass about 2 Bill's that he introduced and if he cannot simply do a roll call amendment for his entire agenda. He is a complete non-factor when it comes to negotiating with people given that he is apt to grand stand like Ted Cruz.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
