For many Republicans, the end justifies the means

That’s one of the inescapable conclusions one can draw from congressional Republicans’ compliant response to President Trump’s blatant unconstitutional power grabs. They hate big government more than they love constitutional niceties. …. Sorry, it has to be said. We’re living through truly historic days in America.  

P.S. – The NYT has a handy-dandy list of the dizzying array of Trump’s orders and actions since Jan. 20, some of them legitimate exercises in powers, many of them not.  

P.S. II – Scot Lehigh at the Globe has more on Trump’s power grab. Scot’s not counting on congressional Republicans to stop our king wannabe.
