Well you supported a guy you weren't happy with and he's actually doing the things he said he'd do and you didn't like. I'm seeing a basic disconnect here.
He CAN'T singlehandedly repeal all past attacks on the Constitution, there's 500-odd idiots in the capital building and he needs to get at least half of them to agree with every single one. Again he's President, not Emperor.
Great don't vote for centrist Republicans, but be warned even if Pat Buchanan won he simply would not be able to do 90% of the stuff on his promise list, or on your bitch list. It's not possible, that's not how our system works.

His veto power is expressly designed to thwart the will of even 65+% of both House of Congress. All he needs is for about 34% to not actively work against him, and that veto power is virtually unbreakable. Don't underestimate the power of the Office.
