1. Presidential Authority and Constitutional Questions

1.1 Constitutional Statements and Powers

President Trump has raised significant constitutional concerns through recent statements. When directly asked if he is required to uphold the Constitution, Trump responded, “I don’t know” [1]. This statement has been consistently reported across ideological lines. Similarly, Trump told Reuters he is “unsure whether people in the US are entitled to due process” [2]. The New York Times reports that intellectual foundations are “setting the stage for Trump the All-Powerful” [3], while analysts suggest his next 100 days will make his already consequential first 100 days “look tranquil” [4].
