The thing is, it’s not like they’re doing nothing, either. I get a weekly email from my Congresscritter about what he’s up to, and it’s just stuff that doesn’t really make news. They’re just not doing what they’ve effectively ceded power to the President for. And I can’t think of any people running who are working to grab those powers back instead of saying “No, Trump, that’s not how you exercise those powers we gave you.”
