| ▲ | JayNitram an hour ago | parent [-] | | For that specific case? Pretty simple, many of his actions that held up congressionally appropriated funds were found unconstitutional in a number of federal courts. Add to that there being a seeming intention to 'claim' that power and authority by this administration gives a few flags. I guess I need to know what you definition of a President overstepping his powers would be? |
