“Illegal? Please show me the law that prevents the President from fulfilling the primary purpose of his office. “

Please show me where the ‘primary’ purpose is defined. The Constitution limits the office of the President to enforcing current laws.

It doesn’t allow making up his own and creating a military dictatorship. So go read the Constitution.

Please show me where the ‘primary’ purpose is defined.

How many times do I have to show you?

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men..."

-- The Declaration of Independence

"We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."

-- The Preamble, or Statement of Purpose, of the United States Constitution

"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law."

-- The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution

"No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

-- The Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution

The Constitution limits the office of the President to enforcing current laws.

The Constitution of the United States is not only current, it is supreme.

It doesn’t allow making up his own and creating a military dictatorship.

So how is it that the fulfilling of the primary purpose of American government, the protection of the God-given, unalienable rights of the people, constitutes a "military dictatorship"?

So go read the Constitution.

You might want to take your own advice, since to date, neither you or your fellow critics seem to pay any mind to the Constitution's clear words that I've posted all over this thread.
