Trump's Executive Order and PowerKatie and Keith discussed the implications of one of Trump's executive orders, which they believe could potentially lead to the President seizing control of the entire Federal Government, including independent agencies like the Federal Election Commission.

They also discussed the Unitary Executive Theory, which centers all real power into the executive branch, and how this could be used to justify the President's actions.
