If the current president couldn't pass a bill for his signature campaign issue (a $30B wall) when both chambers of the legislature were held by his party, Yang is probably not going to pass a $3T+ per year UBI bill when likely just one (the House) would be held by his party. But it would make for interesting discussion on the campaign trail.

Well... if I understood correctly, the current president never tried to pass a bill for a wall when both chambers were held by his party. I could have missed something, though. But if I'm right, well, "didn't try" and "couldn't" are rather different animals.
