“Violating the Constitution is practically the job description for modern presidents. It was George W. Bush’s White House, not Trump, that asserted a ‘commander-in-chief override’ entitling presidents to ignore the law and the Bill of Rights. Congress utterly failed to thwart that outrageous claim. Presidents have amassed vast authority because they are judged on their rhetoric and purported goals, not on their constitutional fidelity.”
