Do eroding presidential norms undermine constitutional principles?

from Democracy in Question: America at 250

Not even 100 days into a second term, the Trump administration is asserting expansive executive authority over the federal bureaucracy and spending, despite traditional congressional oversight, constraints, and presidential norms. In this episode, host Katie Dunn Tenpas discusses with legal expert and Fellow Scott Anderson how President Trump has deviated from central norms and practices of the modern American presidency and the potential consequences of such actions.
