The Democrats controlled Congress when Reagan was President. The Republicans controlled Congress under Clinton. Neither President complained of "gridlock".
Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

Sure it does. Expand or die is pretty much what it says. Your objections are noted, and ignored.

Let's not be naive. The President has the power to introduce and direct legislation.
