“The Executive IS the government now”

What happened over the last 8 years (last 16 really) in Congress ceding power to the President won’t matter. At all.

The day Trump takes office, Congress aided by the media, the Republican establishment and the entirety of the Democrats will rediscover how much power Congress has to rein in the President. Everything he wants to do, they’ll find a way in Congress to block it. Bank on it.

Congress can block him only if he permits himself to be blocked by Congress.

I have been saying that since Trump won his first primary.
