He had no power, he can't tell them what to do. They can change the agenda, but the sole power to pass it was in congress. He can only cheerlead.

Okay, it was a fail agenda? Your point? Why did it fail? Because of congress.......Thus president had to power to pass it. He could only convince people to vote for it, but can't force them
​
Executive orders are not laws, if they feel like it then blames congress.

You realize the things you link prove my point right? The build back better, was an agenda that had to go through congress. Executive orders are not new laws, they are operating within the current laws. Hence why some orders get haltes by judges.

Yes, exactly. Or until people start to actually vote for and care about the bodies of government that can actually make changes. The house and Senate are the 2 most powerful bodies, yet people think the president can wave a wand and boom we have universal healthcare.

They do, but not to make healthcare free or change any laws. The house and Senate are the 2 most powerful bodies in government.
The president power really comes into play after laws are passed.
He cant create programs, make laws. He can only operate within the laws.

Yes, Possibley. There are many people who don't think its weak or what ever to get mental healthcare. That they don't see it as the same thing as physical care.
Also, what the heck do you think the president can do? Want more funding? Vote for Senators and Representatives that align. The president can't do much.

Because the President can veto or sign laws. You still need him. However, Congress needs to do their job first. With Congress split it becomes less important that he was voted in.
I never said he has no power, but he can't make laws.
And congrats you finalize realize congress is made up on individuals, not parties. Doesn't matter if a person is a Dem or Republican. They are individuals who can vote how they want.
