Another Trump failure.

Apparently Democrats feel they should run the executive branch regardless of election results. |
apparently Trump doesn't think he needs to uphold the constitution or follow the rule of law. |
Come on, now. When Democrat presidents overreached, they were slapped down by the courts as well. That's why we have checks and balances. But Trump thinks he can govern by decree (EOs) rather than follow constitutional rules. You would be out of your minds if a Dem president issued delay EOs, many of them blatantly illegal |
Agencies are funded by Congress. |
Not sure this means the department will just return to normal operations. Just means they have to keep paying people their admin leave and can’t actually fire them for now. Either way it’s a good thing. |

Sorry you didn't get to own the LIBS-tough day. |
Apparently the Trump administration doesn’t understand they share power with two other branches. OH, and they clear don’t understand that when you win you are representing and governing for the ENTIRE COUNTRY not just those who voted for you. |
If you looked at the constitution, you would see that Article I is first, not Article II. The power of the purse belongs to Congress, not the president or Russ Vought. Sorry not sorry. |
Agencies fall under the Executive branch of government. Who created the Department of Edumacation? Jimmy Carter. Do you find cabinet positions in Congress? No. Was Carter in Congress when he created it? The judge best review the Constitution. He's out of his lane (again). You spouting "rule of law" and "democracy" every 15 minutes shows just how clueless you are. |
So do you think a future President should be able to unilaterally shut down the Department of Defense? Everybody in the military is now fired? All bases are to be evacuated on Monday? That's the brilliant argument you're making? |
+1 For those who want a king, there’s this place called England. There’s also Saudi Arabia. You might like it better there (though they may not like you unless you’re showing up with a very, very thick wallet). An Emir may suit your fancy, though—how about Qatar? I heard they even hand out airplanes to wannabe monarchs. |
The first sentence of Article II of the U.S. Constitution is "The executive power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America". |
Can you explain what part of the Constitution you're pointing to? |
