To say that the oath-taker does not have the legitimate authority to fulfill the primary purpose of his office is to make a complete mockery of the oath, and ultimately, to completely negate the Constitution.

To say that the oath-taker does not have the legitimate authority to fulfill the primary purpose of his office

The primary purpose of a federal office cannot exceed the enumerated powers of the federal government.

In fact, the oath-taker is obligated to refrain from trying to exercise any power not transferred to the federal government by the States.
