    It’s not the piece of paper, it’s the amount of people who have to go along with something for it to happen. A lot of his and his zealous proposals are wildly unpopular.

    Also Trump is a raging narcissist. If the focus ends up on project 2025 and makes him look bad, he will ditch whatever that item is. So I guess pick your battles and make noise.

      You’re exactly correct. The law as it stands is irrelevant to what these analysts think. I’m not saying Trump can call every shot, but it doesn’t really get any easier to change or skirt laws he dislikes. Anyone who leans on the “but the law says…” argument is praying.
