Legal experts say President Donald Trump's earliest days back in office show that he will be testing the limits of Presidential Power and checks and balances.

The article from MSN discusses how former President Donald Trump's potential return to the White House could significantly test the limits of presidential power and the system of checks and balances in the U.S. government. Legal experts suggest that Trump, known for his confrontational approach to governance, might push boundaries in areas like executive privilege, the use of the pardon power, and interactions with the Department of Justice. There's concern over his past behavior, including his attempts to influence the 2020 election results and his handling of classified documents, which could lead to further legal and constitutional challenges. Experts like Laurence Tribe and Neal Katyal highlight the potential for Trump to challenge the separation of powers, possibly leading to conflicts with Congress and the judiciary, and raising questions about the resilience of democratic institutions. The discussion also touches on how Trump's actions could set precedents for future presidencies, potentially weakening the checks and balances that are fundamental to American democracy.
