2 days agoI see people saying this a lot, but as someone unfamiliar, which orders are actually clearly violating existing law? There is the mass firings example, but when I looked it didn’t seem clear which rule was actually broken.

Ok, I’m sorry to have upset you.
My angle here is that it’s difficult to discuss this topic if there is not irrefutable proof that his actions as carried out were directly violating clearly defined legislation.
If we take the case of reclassifying civil servants, articles I read say that he can do it when “necessary” / “as good administration warrants” which seems like it could leave a lot of wiggle room for him to snake his way out of it. Following that, I don’t see news on whether these people have actually been removed from their jobs or if Trump simply proclaimed something which was not acted upon.
The number of low quality rage-bait articles makes finding actual information quite difficult for me at least.
From the tone of your original post, I had thought you might be knowledgeable as to state clearly which laws he had broken, ideally something so clear it would be impossible for a lawyer not to rule against him (barring whatever the presidential immunity exempts him from).
I wish you well though, and no need to respond here if you don’t want to.
