I don't know what he could or could not get passed, but certainly national
rent controls, a level of wealth taxation that would make sure "billionaires don't exist", forced employee ownership of corporations, forced employee representation on boards, free college, free healthcare, free daycare, free family/medical leave, free internet, (I'm sure I'm forgetting a few other "free" things), debt forgiveness, end to fracking on day 1, federal protections against firing of workers for anything other than "just cause", guaranteed federal jobs at a living wage for all... and all at a price tag that is 3x our current deficit, might put a small dent in the economy.
Now the reality is that he almost certainly couldn't get a lot of his ideas passed, but I'm not going to bank on gridlock to stop a president with brain dead extreme ideas on just about everything. I'd rather not have him in the Oval Office to begin with.
