Having already subdued Congress, Trump has now openly announced that the Führerprinzip governs the executive branch.

The article from Slate, published in February 2025, discusses a hypothetical scenario where former President Donald Trump, upon returning to office, issues an executive order that significantly expands presidential powers. This order, dubbed "King Donald," would allow Trump to bypass Congress in various ways, including the reallocation of federal funds, the unilateral imposition of tariffs, and the ability to fire federal employees at will. Critics argue that this move would effectively dismantle checks and balances, centralizing power in the executive branch to an unprecedented degree. The article explores the potential implications of such an order, including its legality, the reaction from other branches of government, and the broader impact on American democracy. It also touches on the public's response, with some supporters cheering the move as decisive leadership, while opponents see it as a dangerous step towards authoritarianism.
