Correct. A prudent, law-abiding President who appoints qualified agency personnel to enact thoughtful regulations is going to see their agenda inevitably fail. A malicious, arbitrary President who runs around barking illegal commands at people will be rewarded.

Indeed, Hitler would do well here. His theory of government was that he personified the German state and so all authority flowed from him directly. This matches well. More rational forms of executive government are as noted expressly penalized by scotus.

So: TX rebelled, nothing happened. Fascist treasoned, gets off scott free. Biden follows the law, gets told he actually has no power to do anything as a result.

That's what the Koch Brothers tell me, and I sure can't afford the payments on that luxury RV loan!

I look forward to Biden ordering the assets of various billionaires to be seized, as they present a threat to the security of the nation. Or for the executives of the pollution cartel to be imprisoned and the company's assets commandeered for public management. Voiding all student debt, period.

And this is (was? will be?) the defining characteristic of the Trump presidency/era! Base criminality is fine as long as you do it brazenly enough. Whereas trying to follow the rules is for suckers and will inevitably get caught in a web of legal technicalities.

But until January 2025, Biden has all of the powers. So what can he do with them that might help?

Just organize all regulatory bodies under the national guard. Can't imagine how that could go wrong.
