    Limitations of action from either side are entirely due to a lack of a strong majority in Congress. Without it, no matter the goals, the capabilities are limited. There are times I do really appreciate some of the checks congress has over the executive.

      It really really isn’t when there are no consequences for filibustering and only one party does it. They can chokehold any decision indefinitely. I’m not even American and yet I know this, must be nice being that gullible and naive.
