If you republicans win both the house and senate back but don't have a filibuster proof majority, you can count on democrats filibustering everything, just like the republicans have been doing for the last 3 years and just like the democrats did for the 6 years before that. It seems like these days the country is so divided that the loser of the election adopts the stance of NO. No matter what the other party wants, they are against it and they ride that out until the party in power makes enough mistakes that they implode on themselves.
