We need, at the very least, to revoke "emergency" powers of the presidency, and we need to reinforce that Congressional action overrides executive whim.

The administrative state is a good thing, not a bad thing, and people like Steve Bannon are cancers on American success.

Ideally, we would also ban gerrymandering, revoke unlimited anonymous political spending, and implement ranked choice voting.



I think the contradiction required for this is 1) we need a strong, power concentrated leader to decisively correct the ship and prevent future abuses. 2) we then need the leader to voluntarily limit their powers.
