The President is not our national savior

Great article.

The president acts like a king because successive congresses have delegated so much power to the executive that he is largely unfettered in what he can and can't do. Congress regularly passes the "No bad things shall happen" law which includes language that effectively says things like, "the president shall be empowered to insure that no bad things will happen". This is a blank check for presidential overreach and imperial presidency.

We need a paradigm shift in the relationship between the three branches which is horribly misbalanced these days. Congress, needs to start pulling back control, and if the won't, then the courts need to force them to by overturning the laws that excessively handed power over.

Oh please. Trump is just the latest worst president ever since the last worst president ever, and until the next even more worst president ever (who is always a Republican if you're a Democrat and always a Democrat if you're a Republican).

The worst president is always the current one. Each president takes a little more power that his predecessor couldn't get away with. And then the next president takes a little more. Rinse and repeat.

Only racist assholes thought of Obama as the "worst president." Everyone else saw him as a fairly good one.

the worst had been Carter, that was over 40 years ago... Trump is in a world of his own... he puts the W in worst times infinity.

The man is a gem, deplorable, disgusting, immoral...orange
 
No one has ever stated that trump just needs to wave his hand, or flip a switch to make everything alright. We all know that he incapable of doing anything.
