All-powerful Trump tells America, ‘Nothing bad can happen’

CNN notes that Trump used a single chaotic day of decisions and remarks to move closer to the kind of presidency he has long wanted: more personal, more hostile to institutions, and less constrained by traditional checks. Among the examples it highlights are the elevation of loyalists to top justice roles, a push to cut the childhood vaccine schedule while repeating false claims about autism, and implicit pressure on institutions such as the Federal Reserve. CNN argues that these episodes are part of a broader pattern in which Trump centralizes power around himself, sidelines experts and independent officials, and governs increasingly on instinct. Supporters see this as fulfilling his promise to dismantle the administrative state, while critics see it as a dangerous weakening of democratic norms and institutional independence. CNN also suggests that this strategy may energize Trump’s most loyal supporters but hurt him with the wider public. It points to falling approval ratings, public unease over some of his policies, and warnings from health and political figures who say a president’s words and decisions can have serious real-world consequences. – All-powerful Trump tells America, ‘Nothing bad can happen’ | CNN Politics
