Dem leadership isn't powerless to change things; their pockets are full, and they have a vested interest in keeping the status quo. They also benefit because the other party draws the ire. To change anything would not be in their interest.

Every time your electricity bill goes up for the next 10 years, it can be traced back to this Administration’s actions. They are making solar and wind power illegal to build in the United States. They are artificially restricting supply while demand is going up.

There is plenty of fault to be found in Biden's pandemic response. It was a political decision, and I feel it was damned if he did and damned if he didn't. For example, RW news was beating the shit out of him over the nationwide shutdown and closures, even though they historically happened...
