Republicans have been working hard to greatly increase the power of the presidency. How should the next non-Republican president use this power?

The Supreme Court just said that the president can remove officials from independent agencies like the FTC without the consent of Congress. Trump himself said, “Today’s Historic Slaughter Decision by the Supreme Court is the Greatest Increase in Presidential Power in the last 100 years.”

Of course, this comes after the court has said the president cannot be held accountable for illegal acts. Seems he can also unilaterally spend money, not spend money allocated by Congress, shutter entire agencies, etc.

How should the next non-Republican president use this power?
