Where in the rules laid out by the Constitution does it say that the POTUS can just ignore the other Branches of government if he deems them suddenly to be shills for whatever boogey man you choose to name? The POTUS has a duty, it is in his oath, to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution. The Constitution. Not the ephemeral needs of a fickle public easily stirred by phony baloney rhetoric and cheap enthusiasms who seek pat answers and easy solutions to difficult problems.
