    Or at least that the Leader sees what they’re doing now as what they would do were they actually the majority. Giving Republicans votes when you have some bipartisan agreement is very different from actually being able to pass your own agenda and no one should want to imply what’s happening right now is “Democratic control”.

      Democrats don’t pass their own agenda when they do have control. Jeffries is right; it’s functionally the same thing.
