In the united states, the people get to influence things through their representatives in congress, not through unlimited executive power.

I don't believe that congress is doing a good job representing the people but I don't think that the solution to that is to elect a king.



When the president uses the power of the executive branch to enforce an ideology you agree with = democracy.

When you disagree with the ideology = king.

How does that make sense?


I don't think the president should be above the law. I think most presidents have committed crimes and I'd like to see them face more scrutiny not less.
