    The president had almost no power when it was obama. Trump had a lot of power. Now, with Biden we’re back to low power mode.

    Dude in the replies unironically talking about how congress is a slow moving vessel for legislation. Yeah no fucking shit, that is PRECISELY the fucking problem. The climate waits for no man. Bring on the fucking "authoritarian dictator" if it means shit starts to get done.

    Read the replies in that thread to die instantly.

    "After 4 years of Trump, leftists still think it's a good idea for the President to have a lot of power."

    No, after 4 years of Trump it's more clear than ever that the Democrats could do things, but choose not to.

    Also, what kind of wimpy ass shit is that? We should be careful because when the other side--who never care about the rules or past actions anyway--gain power, they'll totally remember that we were civil and nice to them.

    getting horny about the greatness of the balance of powers and the constitution's design is a liberal luxury. you get to boast about some high minded idealist spiel while low key praising the fact our founders wanted to make populist reforms nearly impossible.

    america is a bitch to history by design. we have no capacity to shape it, we just ride it and throw tantrums when shit doesn't go our way.

    but yea this lib is dumb as shit...totalitarian biden would be a tragic disappointment for him.

    Then why was it so important to vote for him, I mean if biden doesn't have power then neither did trump

    When Biden says he will absolutely not do something we want, on principle, don't you see it's just because he doesn't have enough power?

    You just don't understand, the president only has power to oppress immigrants, blow up brown people and destroy lgbtq+ rights.

    Funny how they never reply when you detail the things Biden could do by executive order alone...

    I like that controlling the house, the senate and the presidency means you have no power
