If you have studied law?
You KNOW that the law has space between things…
Modern day President’s HAVE been Politician’s ….
The one we have on the second go around has been a New York Real Estate Guy….
Flash and Entertainment….
Donald J. Trump IS a flawed Human Being that has shown that he like to Bully people for what he wants to do….
THAT HAS gotten him into trouble with the Law and criminal convictions…
It has also saddled him with Millions in Civil Suit Judgement fine’s….
His first term was Donald cutting his teeth…
Surrounded by staff the first time who advised him what he ‘should and NOT DO’?
He twisted and turned and got into trouble….
His second term in office HAS been different….
He and his minions have started by jettisoning anyone close to him that wanted to work by the old and established rules and law..
In this?
Trump HAS tried to DO whatever he he tried to do as a Businessman….
Running a country IS different….
Trump IS trying hard to do what he did as the Rich CEO …
It HAS expanded the power of the Presidency as the Congress standby and the Supreme’s , led by Alito, given him wide latitude to do things others NEVER had…
The next American President….
Likely to be a Democrat….
Will spend a LOT of time putting the Genie BACK in the Bottle…
But Yes?
He Will inherit More Authority and Power for the American Executive Branch that HAD NOT been taken for granted….
In his second term, Mr. Trump is asserting that presidents can take actions that were not previously understood to be within their authority.
