Justice

There is a weak link in the constitution which can open the door to the president having too much power. It works like this. The president takes control of the Department of Justice. He then begins to use the FBI to secretly investigate his opponents. He has a hit list. If congress wants to investigate they can but they cannot enforce the law as that is reserved for the Justice Department. This will upset the balance of power set in the constitution. In today's world this could only happen with a democrat in the White House. The republican party over the years has opposed big government so the people who work there are mostly democrats. The democrats want bigger government which leads to more power to bureaucrats. Trump was and is viewed as a threat to the bureaucracy and thus they could be enticed to work against Trump. NBC news recently suggested that Trump might want to take over the government and become a dictator. He may want that but there is no way the Justice Department would go along.
