Enforcement is part of the problem, but the other problem is judges. The 'consumer welfare' doctrine of anti-trust has in large part served to justify not breaking up companies that really should be broken up.

Judges are part of enforcement, not an orthogonal concern. (And judges are appointed by the executive branch based on its priorities, so a long term trend of executive hostility to effective antitrust is likely to be reflected in the judiciary as well.)
