One party can pass virtually all bills they want and keep the other party from passing bills.
Congress could prevent a president from creating a bill by disapproving it due to unconstitutional issue or budget issues. If one party control both white house and the Congress that party will have nobody to limit their movements in deciding which bills should be created.
