Nope. The best we get is 51 seats in the Senate. 1 short of dealing with Manchinema.

Pooties..... Well, Smokin' Joe managed to pass a fair amount of decent legislation even with Manchinema, so there is hope that at least all the voting reform can get through. That of course will depend on the phases of the moon (for her) and how much coal was brokered (for him).....

Yes, but if the Republicans prove to be absolutely incapable of governing, that will be a strong talking point for 2024. And Biden did get a lot of good legislation passed even with the filibuster and Republican obstruction - considering his slim margins, he had a very good year.
