Beryl Howell: “An American President is not a king.”

A President who touts an image of himself as a ‘king’ or a ‘dictator,’ perhaps as his vision of effective leadership, fundamentally misapprehends the role under Article II of the U.S. Constitution.

The president cannot bring the federal government down on his political opponents ... as he has done here.

The president's interpretation of the scope of his constitutional power — or, more aptly, his aspiration — is flat wrong.

The chilling effect of this executive order ... threatens to significantly undermine the integrity of our entire legal system.
