They don't really need anything. These are all wedge issues, not real issues they are interested in solving. As long as there is debate and people are unsatisfied, they will continue to get elected in order to fix the broken system.
Just looking at the recent past, the Democrats had both houses of Congress and the Presidency. They were fully capable of passing every single piece of legislation that they have historically wanted. However, all they passed were a couple of measures on which the electorate were hugely split. Then they chose to sit on the floor, because the Republicans didn't let them vote on a gun measure. The Republicans have also acted this way when in power.
These are politicians playing politics - 535 people who all believe they should be President. They are all willing to string the people along to further their political careers.
