Half of that shit doesn't many any sense. These people are straight up just saying a bunch of bullshit that sounds fancy, but is still bullshit.

The Administrative State holds 100 percent of its power at the sufferance of Congress, and its insulation from presidential discipline is an unconstitutional fairy tale spun by the Washington Establishment to protect its turf.

  1. wtf is "the Administrative State"?

  2. "Sufferance of Congress" what?? That's what Congress decides. Additionally, Republicans currently hold the power of the purse. They also held both chambers in Obama's last years and for Trump's first two years. They didn't do shit about whatever the hell "the Administrative State" is.

  3. "its insulation from presidential discipline" What are they even talking about‽‽ What the hell is presidential discipline?

  4. "is an unconstitutional fairy tale spun by the Washington Establishment to protect its turf." The Constitution clearly states the structure of our government and the responsibilities of each branch. Also, wtf is "the Washington Establishment"??

I can't even get through the first paragraph. This is complete non-sense.

They want a dictator. But only if it's their dictator.
