“Trump, as president, has to take advantage of the fact that the last three presidents and the Congress itself have sucked ALL of the actual power out of Congress”
You watch how fast power goes back to Congress if Trump wins. The speed of the hypocritical grandstanding will blow your mind.
Congress cannot reclaim its ceded power. Initially, Trump won’t have it, either. He has to take it from the Agencies. The Executive IS the government now and it will be a contest between the President and the Departments and Agencies as to who exercises that power. A Democrat President, being part and parcel of the Ruling Class that includes the Agencies will slide right into the headship of the Executive. Trump has to kill the Agencies or become a cipher.
