Maybe you should go back to school and learn a little more about politics. Seriously, I learned about checks and balances from a talking animated piece of parchment in like 2nd grade.
He’s right-wing only in the sense that American politics is so far right compared to other industrialized countries that even the left-wing is right-wing in comparison.
So since we agree, then condescending to me wasn’t exactly called for, now was it?
If you agree that student loans should be categorically forgiven, then I agree.
And I never suggested not voting for him, but he’s not a good person. He’s got my friends and loved ones detained and/or deported. Don’t get me wrong, I’d vote for him over Republicans, but it really fucking sucks that that’s our choice, and it’s not a reasonable request for me to not criticize his absolute dogshit pro-capitalist worldview.
So can one political party do a significant amount of work to stop another from doing stuff or no? Democrats always complain about republicans keeping them from doing anything, but let republicans get away with taking away so many rights and committing so many atrocities. Checks and balances is supposed to go both ways, and democrats have never checked or balanced jack shit

I learned that too. But that doesn’t shield t our right wing president from criticism. Clearly the system is broken.

Compared to America’s right-wing (aka fascists, aka Republicans), he’s basically Jesus.)
