POTUS is the head of the executive branch. If he wanted to he could dismantle the DEA or end drug enforcement with a stroke of the pen. We have to Trust the Process and understand that there are steps he has to take first. After the storm he will consolidate his position and politically be able to do much more. The 3,000 pardons is a great indication of what's to come. POTUS is giving every indication that he is going to do whatever is within his power to right what is wrong.
I've been an anti-statist for the past ten years. Not trusting any politician. Right now I am a huge believer that POTUS might be different and that he's going to push us forward on all fronts.
We'll see. Right now, I trust the process and am enjoying the show.
