most people wouldn’t be satisfied with their preferred politicians
I think most people believe that this is the best that they can get, and that their guy would be doing more but they're constrained by other forces.
Which is absurd but these people wouldn't be libs if they understood and acceoted how political power works.
Look at biden's debt thing. Hailed as a victory even though biden could unilaterally cancel all federal debt by scribbling it down on a napkin. Libs seem to think that either he can't do that, or that it would cost him, or even that doing small incremental steps has some kind of inherent value.
They absolutely believe that doing small steps is inherently valuable. If he were to actually exercise power he'd be ruling by decree and he'd be no better than Trump. Actions have no meaning in their content, only in their appearance.
