Yeah it absolutely is. And it's absolutely more effective to lobby, petition and advocate within a generally competent, well-meaning neoliberal's bureaucracy than within that of a completely amoral kleptocrat like Tom Price or Chad Wolf or Betsy Devos. Pretending there isn't a difference there is just stupid.

Sorry I wasn't trying to pretend there's not a difference, rather making the point that this cycle partially explains the lack of fast progress towards leftist issues. Too much time spent recovering from Republican administrations.
Oh absolutely agree. I totally wish we had a leftist champion as the nominee, but Biden is apparently what we get. So on day one we start rattling sabers for his cabinet appointments and policy moves.
