Clinton had a Congress that did its job.
True but I mean, would congress today not pass legislation Trump asks for as it relates to most of his federal-government wrecking ball ideas? He has until 2027 when the next blue wave takes away that ability.
Of course they could. But would they? You think these guys want to go home and say they voted to put half a million people out of work?

I don’t know how you’d effectively deregulate and simplify the government.
DOGE seems too blunt, but something like the Grace Commission under Reagan turned out to be toothless.
I dunno…. An ineffective Congress means a government where it’s much easier to add things than take them away.
I guess that makes me slightly more sympathetic to DOGE, in the sense that it’s something.

Think Copper summed it up pretty well ...

He didn't start that way, but when Newt's GOP crushed the Democrats in the 94 midterms he just pivoted and very masterfully stole their platform. Didn't call him Slick Willy for nothing.

Carney is doing a similar thing in Canada right now. He’s adopting some of the policy positions from Conservatives and dropping the MAGA overtones.

I don’t know about that. He campaigned in 1992 that he was going to ‘end welfare as we know it’ and put 10k cops on the streets.

He’s moving the Liberal Party back to its traditional place at the centre left and bringing in disillusioned red Tories (Joe Clark PCs) who the Poilievre Conservatives have unceremoniously abandoned
