Trump is preparing to rule the US by bypassing Congress -. Reuters Since April, the US presidential administration has been developing a plan to continue implementing its policies without congressional approval. To that end, Trump can more actively use presidential orders and interpret his powers more broadly. Possible measures include introducing new debts, tightening visa rules and strengthening the White House's control over budget funds. At the same time, lawyers prepare officials for investigations by Democrats and explain how to respond to requests from Congress. When asked by Reuters whether Trump would be able to rule the country comfortably if the Democrats get a majority in Congress, one of the sources replied: "Very comfortably."
