            Presidency is just a PR role at this point. Got the chaos of the house and minority rule in the senate to shut that shit down if something gets through. President has veto power but congress can overturn it lol

              I mean the president still pretty much entirely conducts foreign policy

                I’ll argue they are the face of it. But all of those gears and levels are operating from the State department, Intelligence agencies, NSA, etc. The president is still in the PR role of it all, trying to justify and explain those foreign policies choices to us and the world in general.
