"I want a country with law and order, where police officers listen to the courts, not to the president."
You should learn a bit more about how our legal system works. Separation of powers means the Judicial branch can't have control over an executive power like policing.
- geofft 10y agoControl, no, respect, yes. Law enforcement has to listen to the courts, even though they are directed by their superiors. When the president makes an executive order, a court places a stay on it, and law enforcement officers respond, "I don't care, I'm carrying out the order because I answer to the president," then the executive branch has taken on the roles of both the legislative and judicial as well.
