I still can’t believe that Donald Trump berated a governor and said “I am the law” yesterday. And it was like the fourth most important news of the day.

Why has there been no executive order on eggs? Are we saying that destroying the poultry industry is harder than destroying the 14th Amendment and Articles 1-3? Ah, I see, it is because half the country wouldn't notice doing the latter, but would rage against doing the former.
