      Exactly. So you’re saying presidents can’t do X… Meaning there’s a penalty for X? So if president did X, that would be a crime. But if crime was committed as an official act.

        No. They’re saying there’s a procedure for enacting new laws, and creating them outside those procedures accomplishes nothing. It’s not a crime. It’s also not how laws are created.

          No.

          I’m the president of America, I actually accomplish whatever I want. I’ve unilaterally created this law as an official act. If anyone doesn’t cooperate with this law, As another official act, I command the military to shoot them in the face. To protect America.
