Talk Easy Interview with Senator Elizabeth Warren on Constitutional Crisis and Public Education

Published | Video Starts at 05:20

So this is what I was thinking about at 3:02 this morning. What if he just says no? We are literally then in full blown constitutional crisis. Now, look, We've been inching toward constitutional crisis all along. When you've got a president who just doesn't care what the law is, when he's openly saying he doesn't want to obey the Constitution. But let me start with Con Law 101, and that is, remember, legislature makes the laws. The administration is supposed to administer those laws. The court is supposed to enforce this. (05:20–05:30)
