Put another way, the Pelosi model of governance is part of the problem. Yes, she was very effective, but her effectiveness came from a centralized, top-down approach which has its historical roots in, among other things, Newt Gingrich’s “Contract with America” reforms in the early 1990s. This approach is one of the drivers of political dysfunction in Washington and the country.Article contentCongress is supposed to be where politics happens.
Worse, when some policy changes are too radical, unpopular or flatly unconstitutional to pass even on a party-line basis, such as forgiving billions in student debt, Congress simply asks the executive branch to do it unilaterally with no legislative support or legitimacy whatsoever. This makes politics ever uglier and more zero-sum because it turns presidents into elected monarchs and leaves unelected judges as the only check on executive power.
It’s fine to decry how members of Congress are too partisan and too performative, preferring to denounce “the establishment” from cable news studios or to write meaningless press releases or tweets rather than actual legislation. I’ve been calling Congress a “parliament of pundits” for years now.
