“Trump has already suggested taking such a big step, saying last year that he would ‘use the president’s long-recognized impoundment power to squeeze the bloated federal bureaucracy for massive savings.’”

EXCEPT the Congressional Budget and Impoundment Control Act of 1974 makes it illegal—the President can not ignore spending he doesn’t like. He is not a king. Worse, Trump is an idiot.

He doesn’t understand how things work.

Human-made rules do not apply to Herr Trumpkopf.

Or in theory they do, and are just not applied in practice.
