Charity No... the point is, that if you want to declare war, you have to go through congress. But he didn't, and thus can't talk about "war". Hence, he needs to give it another word. But he's just blatanlty open about what he's doing.
Same goes for Alina Habba who Trump wanted to give the federal prosecutor seat in New Yersey. But he couldn't get her through the approval process, which runs through congress. But that's also something they didn't want to do, so they just left the seat open and let Habba do the work anyway. Then Habba got replaced by a triumverate, which was also not according to the rules.
And sensitive issues for the executive branch, once they come up in the house, Johnson just sidetracks it because he has the power to set the agenda. If Johnson doesn't do it, then Trump just declares a state of Emerency, in which he gets extraordinairy powers to do things and ignore congress.
Everything that the executive branch and the speaker of the house is doing right now, is taking away power from congress and funneling it into the executive. And at the end of the day, the real power of the poppulation lies within Congress.
It's Congress that through a tedious process, comes to consensus that formulates the descision that flows from all factions in society. They write the laws... the executives job is to execute those laws. But MAGA, is just about the executive branch. They don't like the judiciairy that binds and litmits the executive to it's constitutional duties, and they don't like the congress because then you have to talk to people you don't like and come to an agreement.
That's why this president, doesn't represent the people at all... it just represents its own voters. Those that are disenfranchised, should be a bit more then just pissed off.
