Without a majority in both chambers it seems like we’re fucked. Precedent means jack shit to the majority of the SCOTUS so we basically need to codify 50+ years of decisions. Even then we need to claw back some sanity at the state level.
Here’s where it gets tricky, lots of people get lost.
For the best path forward and to ensure this doesn’t happen again we should:
Have a robust primary every election and replace incumbents that don’t agree with voters.
Blindly support Dem incumbents until they eventually lose to a Republican
Think about it, don’t just answer right away reflexively.
Which path forward actually leads to progress? I don’t want to rush you, but it’s an election year. Decisions made today we’re gonna be stuck with for 4-6 years.

We literally just had that…
For two years…
And we’re still fucked because instead of voting for someone that would accomplish stuff, we banded together around Joe Biden.
And got “not trump” but none of what we actually want either.
Which brings us full circle to why Biden might not get enough votes to stop trump in 2024.

Ok…
So why not get rid of the fillbuster?

Seriously.
If 50 D senators isn’t enough because of the fillibuster, what’s you’re reasoning for keeping it?

So think fast, but think long term.
