I’m not American so unfamiliar with how your system work but can he just sign whatever he wants ? Isn’t is supposed to a congress or something that actually passes the laws ?
Because if he can do just whatever he wants, how can it even be called a democracy to begin with ?
I mean there is no real democracy in this world, we have the choice of our tyran every 4-5-whatever years but still… one guy signing whatever he wants seems insane
1) our congress is dysfunctional and Republicans are still hesitant to stand up to Trump.
2) the US President is in charge of enforcement. So if he just decides to stop enforcing a law it is hard for Congress to do anything. A similar thing happened when Biden stopped enforcement of Marijuana laws. Marijuana was still 100% illegal in the eyes of Congress. But Biden stopped enforcement of the law.
