The former president and his backers aim to strengthen the power of the White House and limit the independence of federal agencies.

    Personally, I think presidents have more than enough power now, and I don’t want them to have more. Whether I support or oppose any particular president. Because I don’t want to live in a dictatorship.

      Too much. There’s already a huge lack of oversight too, as seen by Trumps term. This is basically paving the road towards a dictatorship. Parliaments aren’t perfect, but I rather have a bunch of people vote on decision making stuff, instead of one dude saying how it goes. Especially when it is apparently that easy to become president of the biggest military apparatus of the world. As it stands, the US is a ticking time bomb.
