It feels that way because conservatives have held most of the power for almost all of those 20 years.

I mean conservatives have held power since Carter. He was the last non-conservative president we had, he actually tried to reign in the CIA and get Israel to stop killing Arabs in a big way, among other things. Biden was actually way further left than the norm, if that tells you anything.

We took a massive tumble with Reagan/Clinton, and then ever since then, we've been crawling our way back up towards some kind of humanity in government an inch at a time.

Biden literally split with the democratic party to stop desegregation. He was always one of the most conservative dems.
