The truth is the presidency is actually an enormously powerful position and there is no secret cabal of intelligent, strategic capitalists behind the scenes who can press a button to override it. Ruling classes have always been riven by factionalism, and the modern American ruling class is at the apex of this due to generations of imperial hegemony degrading their ability to analyze, understand, and respond to real material conditions.

Thank Bush for that.
