MODERATORS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unitary_executive_theory
Sadly, this only works when a Republican is in office. As soon as a Democrat steps into office, he needs two-thirds of the House and more than sixty Senators to pass legislation that had already been successfully negotiated during the Republican term in office.

None of these can do anything. Administrative law doesn't real. Agents don't have any autonomy. Cabinet secretaries don't matter. All those accrued powers from legislation like the Patriot Act and the AUMF and the Civil Rights / Voting Rights Acts and the Interstate Highways Act and No Child Left Behind and the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act just vanish in a puff of smoke when a Democrat walks into the Oval Office.
Presidents Can't Do Anything Without Congress. Even with Congress, they can barely do anything at all.
Until Trump gets back into office and then he can reach under his desk and turn off the entire democratic process with a flick of the switch, a thing Republicans can just do and nobody can stop them.
