No message and no size of message will matter if the Republicans still control the House.

Incorrect.  The House has no say over appointments to the judiciary or the federal agencies.
Well good luck getting to 60 Democrats in the Senate to stop the Republicans in their advise and consent role then.

Go ahead.  Remember what happened when the Senate GOP would not stop filibustering Obama's three nominees to the D.C. Circuit?

Yes. I remember the stories being written about the doom and gloom of the Republicans. I am sure if I were on Atlas at the time, I would have read thread after thread about how the GOP was finished.  Then 2014 happened... How did that go again? Oh yeah... The Democrats lost the Senate. Doom and gloom, as always, averted.
