Michael Cannon in a House Judiciary committee hearing said:
That is certainly something that no one wants to contemplate. If the people come to believe that the government is no longer constrained by the laws, then they will conclude that neither are they.
Cannon said it is very dangerous for the president to wantonly ignore the laws, to try to impose obligations upon people that the legislature did not approve.
MUST WATCH!
