One thing that has been so difficult to understand?
It is how the American people and our elected Representatives view the office of the President of the United States.
Why are they willing to endow so much power to one man?
It's called Article II of the US Constitution. Maybe
kt should read it.
What wryly amusing about DU-Grade Progs' views of the powers of the President is that they think Dem POTUSes are all-powerful and should never be told, "No," while R POTUSes, in their view, do not even have authority over Executive department agencies ... except when they demand an R POTUS wave a wand to keep a pandemic disease out of the US while Progs undermine that R President's efforts.
Re that latter point, how many DU threads called Trump's January 2020 China travel shutdown racist and/or xenophobic? Did DU's arch thread proliferators reach double-digit numbers of such threads?
