    The winning Presidential campaign message would be this: I promise to work to reduce the power of the Presidency via supporting and campaigning for legislation and Constitutional a…

    I want to know whether Trump has legal authority to this money for this purpose. If it was money directed by Congress for clean energy, then no.
