He will use PDDs and Executive Orders to do absolutely anything he wants to do with impunity. He will use agencies to create law and there will be no one to stop him.

Well, that isn't quite right.

There are some pretty crunchy conservatives on the Supreme Court, assuming Roberts hasn't lost his mind, who find that "stroke of the pen, law of the land" stuff to be a herd of baby fur seals just begging to be clubbed down by people who know why the Constitution was written and who'll handle Osagyefo rougher than they did Richard Nixon for trying out that stuff on this side of the Atlantic, as if America were the Paris Commune.

Come on -- in a staredown, who do you like? Barky, or Clarence Thomas?

And that's what conservative Senate candidates like Ted Cruz are for. Bye-bye Comrade Barky!

He has gotten away with “stroke of the pen, law of the land” so far. I see no one stopping him.
