This doesn’t really make any sense. Representatives are elected by the people.Would be all for limiting the Execs power. But only after congress is fixed. There should not be a single corporate or foreign dollar in congress. Any congressmen that votes in direct and obvious violation of their voters will should be impeached. I mean right now every new tax we have gotten in 20+ years is unconstitutional because CONGRESS HAS NOT REPRESENTED THE PEOPLE. And that is taxation without representation which is a founding principal of our country.Absolutely not. The executive was supposed to be a weak branch, Congress was supposed to be stronger. Decades of weak willed legislatures have passed the power to the executive so that they wouldn’t have to act and has resulted in an executive with far more power than they were intended.If there is a branch of government that has abused and expanded their power it is Congress. Taking power from the executive branch = giving power to the legislative. They not just getting rid of this power they are taking it. That is the very definition of a power grab. And I would trust Hiden Bidens coke head kid with power before congress.Not a power grab. Just reigning in the authority of the executive the way the founders intended.It's a power grab.....and they trying to openly give aid to their riot squads, much the way Democrats try to remove the police from the equation by hamstringing them. They can't use riot gear or pepper-spray. An obvious move to render law enforcement ineffective.So what’s so wrong about reigning in the out of control abuse of power of the executive branch?
