Like all #strongmen, his aim is to concentrate #political #power in himself & those closest to him. Since returning to the #WhiteHouse in January 2025, #Trump has preferred to rule by way of #executive order rather than through the #legislative process. He has done so despite his #Republican party controlling both houses of #Congress."
