"Well, I’m in no hurry,” Trump told reporters outside the White House before departing for Camp David. “I have ‘acting.’ And my actings are doing really great.”

He praised acting interior secretary David Bernhardt and acting White House chief of staff Mick Mulvaney, saying they are “doing great” in their temporary roles.

“I sort of like ‘acting,’ ” Trump said. “It gives me more flexibility; do you understand that?”

Yes I think most of us understand perfectly.. he calls himself President but he doesn't like following the Constitution except when convenient.. too many pesky checks and balances, even before the Dems took the House.

More blithering bullshiite from the far left lunatic fringe.

It was your little Marxist Messiah who overrode the US Constitution, numerous times.

President Trump has followed the Constitution scrupulously.

Now you've shot your mouth off...once again. So show us where, when and how Trump trampled on the US Constitution.

President Obama’s Top Ten Constitutional Violations of 2015
http://www.nationalreview.com/2015/12/obama-violate-constitution-top-ten-2015/

These don't even include the Marxist Messiah using the powers of the federal government against political opponents...including the Trump Campaign. Those include the unmasking of US citizens by high level Obama administration officials...and I mean more than one such official. As well as opening a counter-intelligence operation against the Trump campaign...upon no showing of any proof.

Out of the horses mouth jwhop, he prefers not to have to confirm his cabinet members, even tho the Senate is still Republican. The Constitution calls for confirmation. He wants to spend billions for his wall and hang the consequences to people whose lives depend on departments currently shut down. There is no emergency there, and he has said so himself(although held up funds may create a humanitarian crisis while he sits on his tuckus); and the funds have not been appropriated for it. And he continually declares he is willing to keep the govt shut down unless he gets his unchecked way.

I find it so interesting that the very same folk who insist the majority of the country are conservatives, also claim that Dems are given a pass by "the people" where Repubs are not. Nonsense by definition.

None of the crap you attempt to cite amounts to Constitutional violations.

On the other hand, everything cited in the articles I posted...above, amount to Constitutional violations on the part of your little Marxist Messiah, Barack Hussein Obama.

Oh, but wait, I didn't hear a peep out of you...or far left loons in the demorat party when your Marxist Messiah, Obama was actually shredding the US Constitution.

I absolutely refute your nonsense.

demorats are not being given a pass by "the people". It's the lying fake news lunatic press who give demorats a pass and don't report the facts about their positions on issues.

If you read the Washington Compost or NY Times..or watched CNN and MSNBC you would never know that Shyster Schumer, Hillary The Corrupt, The Marxist Messiah and Joe 'Plugs" O'Biden ALL CALLED FOR A BORDER WALL in public speeches back in the day! One example of press non-reporting in the present.

I was referring to one of your articles which claimed that if Repubs did what the O Admin did they would be crucified for it, but" the people" give the Dems a pass every time.

As for the earlier wall, of course that was reported, at the time. Tho i don't read most of those publications in fact in 2006 I considered the govt superfluous to real life.

And I am in the process of returning to that pov

So far not one allocated Penny has been spent on extending the wall built under the 2006 bill. But we need more money!

If we are to judge the President for what his "officials" say, the Tromper considers himself an idiot. You down for that?

The aide said that guys like me were 'in what we call the reality-based community,' which he defined as people who 'believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.' [...] 'That's not the way the world really works anymore,' he continued. 'We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors...and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do'.[3]

The source of the quotation was later identified as Bush's senior advisor Karl Rove,[4] 

Which reality do you live in? Which reality do you think Don Wan lives in?

As to the OP, while it may be strictly speaking constitutional to operate with an "acting" cabinet, the preference of the Prez to keep that indefinitely indicates the desire to exclude Congress from those decisions entirely. For "flexibility" read absolute authority to do as he likes
