YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

It has been one month since President Donald Trump took the oath of office and was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States. In that time, he has issued more than 70 executive orders and has bypassed Congress on issues related to citizenship, the disbursement of appropriated funds, and the overall downsizing of the federal government. What happens when one of the three branches of government overreaches and seizes power and authority from another? Critics of the president are calling it a constitutional crisis. Is that true and what does a constitutional crisis really mean? USA TODAY Justice Department Correspondent Bart Jansen joins us on The Excerpt to share his insights.
