Let's all be honest: 2017 needed this sort of a Veep-esque moment.https://twitter.com/TomNamako/status/935166523290931202 …
Honestly, not sure it is. When Obama had a plausible argument for executive actions that were key to his policy goals, he often took them as well. I guess I'm surprised people think the Trump admin *wouldn't* go this route.

Sorry I didn't explain myself well. I meant that the plausibility is newer. I think they've made, in aggregate, less plausible legal arguments than even prior executives. I definitely agree that all executives attempt to stretch the boundaries; it's a part of the job now.

In truth, I don't blame any of the executives for it either. Seems like co-equal branches should squabble about territory. I think the executive wins these squabbles too much, but I don't blame them for the attempt.
