What do you mean “will be”?! |
The House is not the limiting factor right now - it's the Senate. If Republicans somehow get 60 seats then all bets are off. |

The guardian article is kind of terrifying:
“ In Stephen Miller, we see that Maga will not simply end with Trump. We must keep our eyes on him, contest everything he does and says. Because – while this may be hard to fathom – if the US ends up with Miller as its dictator, we are in even deeper trouble than we are with Trump, and it could last a lot longer.” https://apple.news/AmIakJdeYTPyZ67Fxb26e6g |
They both seem like patient, thoughtful types. |
You left off the /s but we get it. |
“The president has plenary authority.” Repost this frozen face fool often. |
Why is this so alarming to you? It's literally the first sentence of the Executive Branch in the Constitution. Has been since 1790. Article II. - THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH Section 1. The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America. (AKA The Vesting Clause) |
Article I is longer than one sentence. You've got to keep reading to know what powers Article II has and does not have. |
|
Does not sound plenary
"He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments." |
The president is the boss of the entire executive branch. That's a fact. |
|
Also "; he shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed"
= Not plenary |
You did not read the full article ii |
Wrong. |
Quoting the constitution's limits to presidential power is not wrong |
Oh, but I did. He also doesn't have the power to forgive student debt just because he wants to. That's a spending item, so it requires the legislative branch to enact that spending (and charge the tax payers for the debt). |
