Does the President have Absolute Power over the Country and States

Indeed. Sit back and watch them twist, or say nothing, because he’s the Big Daddy they’ve always pined for. :joy_cat:

Precisely. I know what they would have said about Obama saying something like this - because I was still in the Republican Party during Obama’s term. I would have been saying the same things about him then that I’m saying about Trump now.

The true axiom: supply equals demand.

The 10th Amendment gives the State the power to do as they wish so long as they are fairly autonomous.

However, if the states are insist on the Federal government to bail them out in way that more money is needed to restart their local economies that is where both the POTUS and Congress can insist such states to conform to executive will.

Federal cash and resources often come with caveats.

For example, President Dwight Eisenhower signed into law in 1956 the Federal Aid Highway Act of 1956 (also short titled the National Interstate and Defense Highways Act). At the time, it was the largest amount of money given towards “infrastructure”, a word often cited by President Trump during this crisis. This act explicitly authorized appropriations for continuing the construction of highways,; to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 to provide additional revenue from taxes on motor fuel, tire, and trucks and buses; and for the other purposes. The term “defense” was included to divert costs from defense funds and provide access to the US militia to defend itself during conventional or nuclear war. Do you see where the POTUS and Congress are going…

Nahhhhhhhhh…I’d rather look at all the weak lib “likes” on your post asking me to. :sunglasses: :tumbler_glass:

I’ve got to run now…and go to the very front line of our economy…and stimulate it. Have fun and…AND…a super, duper, Trump double scooper day.

And as usual, just run away rather than comment on the topic.

Honestly, they know they can’t defend this while holding on to the conservative principle of a small centralized government that respects the rights of individual states. They’d rather have a big government that supplies everything that Trump demands.

Given the precedent of the Fed’s abuse of the Interstate Commerce Clause, yeah, he does.

And yet… you show no proof.

Prescient.

I just hope voters remember how important an informed vote is in November and choose to remove those who would abuse the power with which we entrusted them.

Remember that time when President Obama said that his authority was total and Conservatives were like “Hey… that’s no big deal”?

Yeah… me neither.

I hope for that as well. Although the recent decent into the madness of the Idiocracy does not inspire confidence.

Why is it acceptable to you that Trump lies so much?
