Here's the thing, in a sane world, the president wouldn't matter quite so much. If you actually had a more reasonable legislature, they would have the political will to actually hold the president accountable for going beyond his scope.
That is to say for those wanting a more "perfect" president than some moderately inactive centrist, don't expect that out a country like this. It's a singular position and really should be the second choice of people who want a more hardcore candidate, with a failure to build consensus on 'the' hardcore candidate.
Very true. One thing that struck me about the last 8 years was how beholden the Republicans were to Trump during this entire time. It was batshit and I cannot remember any other time the legislator was so beholden to a President. We need them to be an independent branch, not scared of one man.
