I don't necessarily disagree, my point is only that in political discussion, treating the issue as solely the purview of the presidency is unhelpful and incorrect.

EDIT: and that fixing things and breaking them are two entirely different processes, and that breaking is often much easier to do unilaterally than fixing. It's easy to do something ghoulish like breaking a man's arm, but it's much harder, even for that same person, to set and heal it.

Ah, on that you're right. It's more of a systematic issue than an issue that a president can solve on their own
