Eight years of Obama telling everyone his hands were tied because of Congress and the Courts and the states and public opinion and the need to win the next election cycle.
Trump comes in like a wrecking ball, giving his goon squad cover to do anything they pleased. And after four years of that, we were convinced Presidents are powerful after all.
Then Biden steps into office and the President can't do anything again.
Right, because Republicans only care about getting their way and Democrats try to play by the rules and tradition. It gets pretty frustrating.
They hide behind the rules, any time their donors don't want something to happen.
If they have no problems with impropriety, blatantly breaking established norms and laws, and getting impeached a couple times, a President can do quite a bit!
The right to impropriety, blatantly breaking established norms and violating laws is reserved to state governments under Dem Presidents.
Getting impeached a couple times is still on the table, through.
Now imagine the Suer of the United States stepping into office
