Are you fucking stupid?
We have 3 branches of government. One that takes decades to change the makeup of. One that is split in two and tends to favor the number of states.
Any one of those branches can fight the other two and stop progress. The one that is split i two fights itself.
Currently, all 4 groups are controlled by Republicans. Two years ago, only 2 of the 4 were controlled by Democrats. Those are not equivalent sets of "in power".
2 of the 4 and giving every possible pass available to give, including siding with Israel. 50% of the power and 10% of the effort doesn't work.
Nice made up numbers. With 90% of the effort and 50% of the power, they can only get 10% of the results.
If you care about issues like Israel, then you need to support the candidates that support your view.
