What "The Executive Power shall be Vested in a President" Means

To all of the people who think President Trump, or any President, does not have the power to clean up the bloated Executive Branch, I refer you to the Sacred Document, the Constitution of the United States, which says the following in the very first sentence of the very first paragraph of Article II:

 

Clause 1: The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America.

There is no ambiguity or doubt who holds the power of the office. Not the Congress, not any judge, not the media, not even the ACLU. Nor is there a ruling or governing body.

Only one person holds the power of the office. It isn’t a partnership of any sort.

And since the Congress dumped much of what it could control onto the Presidency, those Members have nothing to say now. They cannot usurp the office because they don’t like an appointee of the President.

Since this President campaigned on cleaning up the bureaucracy, which is housed in the Executive Branch, with the man he campaigned with and said he would appoint to do that task, and was overwhelmingly elected by THE PEOPLE to keep that promise, there were no secrets kept from employees or anyone else. Instead, he has promised to keep his word.

Every judge who blocks President Trump from fulfilling his Constitutional duty to fix what is broken, is now acting Unconstitutionally. And, therefore, is subject to impeachment and removal, because he or she is preventing the President from fulfilling HIS duty.

Which is spelled out in the first sentence of Article II.

As for those employees who think they have a right to hold onto their position indefinitely, without consequence, well, your employer (the President) is now asking you to document what work you have completed. This is called a self-evaluation in the private sector.

And if you don’t want to evaluate your own job performance, you are always free to leave. No one is forcing you to stay.

Soon enough, the bloat which exists in the government will be exorcised and those who remain will be required to do an honest day’s work for an honest day’s pay.

We elected a businessman to streamline the government to run like a business. He is well on the way to do this. And 77MM voters will hold him to this.

When I was in business and asked why something was done which did not make sense to me, when someone said, “Because we always did it this way”, I would respond by saying “Why” and then look for another, a better, way to complete the task. That is what President Trump, and DOGE, is doing now.

It is time we all understand the meaning of Article II, Clause I, because President Trump certainly does.
