She'll get the Supreme Court nominees (although I strongly suspect Garland will be confirmed in the lame duck session so it might only be 1 or 2 depending on 2020). As for signature legislation I think that gun control is more likely to be the signature legislation she can get through (and even that will be more limited then ought probably just an assault weapon ban, gun show loophole closure, and expanded background checks).
I suspect though the GOP will not be as obstructionist, their own party is a mess, they are slowly losing the country and they know it.
