The combative former boxer-turned-lawyer was widely-acknowledged as one of toughest dealmakers in Congress, a conservative Democrat in an increasingly polarized chamber who vexed lawmakers of both parties with a brusque manner and this motto:
“I would rather dance than fight, but I know how to fight.”
Over a 34-year career in Washington, Reid thrived on behind-the-scenes wrangling and kept the Senate controlled by his party through two presidents — Republican George W. Bush and Democrat Barack Obama — a crippling recession and the Republican takeover of the House after the 2010 elections.
He retired in 2016 after an accident left him blind in one eye.
Reid in May 2018 revealed he’d been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and was undergoing treatment.

We can thank him for the Trump 3 on the SCOTUS.
Won’t be missed
This man is big Rasha all the damage he did to this county.
I remember well how evil he and his party are.
He was as corrupt as his fellow DemocRATs like the Biden’s the Clinton’s, Nancy Pelosi and Diane Feinstein etc.etc.
His sons became multi millionaires off the the back of their father’s influence just like Hunter Biden and the whole extended Biden family.
he wont be missed.
Remember when the Republicans were pushing the lie that his injury from an exercise device was caused by being beaten up by mafiosi?
Trump hating croc. Next .
He had a long life and did a lot of good.
Trump will certainly eulogies him.
