Trump's actions reveal a dangerous disregard for constitutional checks and balances, as he often ignores laws and procedures meant to limit executive power. This trend exposes the vulnerability of American democratic norms, particularly as party loyalty overshadows institutional integrity. The implications are profound: if Congress and the courts fail to act, the very foundation of democracy could be at risk.
