It is a unique structure, which <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Paoletta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Paoletta</span></a> described in 2024 as “clearly unconstitutional,” arguing that it limits whom the president may choose.</p><p><a href="https://masto.ai/tags/law" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>law</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/ExecutiveBranch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ExecutiveBranch</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/AbuseOfPower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AbuseOfPower</span></a> <a href="https://masto.ai/tags/Project2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Project2025</span></a></p>
