No, but it at least prevents the appearance of a “mandate.”

This is such a liberal take. They would have acted exactly the same whether they had the 'spirit of the nation' behind them or not. Stop picking fights of symbolic victories.

Democrats are refusing to employ the same tactics that the republicans use against them when they are in power.
