Which is because Congress has been captured by the autocrat that wants to turn himself into a dictator. They've rolled over and are allowing it to happen. They are setting up a system that will allow them to hold into power for perpetuity, and prevent future elections from changing that.
In any case congress has hardly been captured. People keep saying this nonsense as if it’s been many years. It hasn’t even been a month. Once the constituents digest the activity congress will adjust accordingly.
Most of trumps EOs have been blocked or frozen for now. The system is balancing as intended.
If you read up on unitary executive theory, you won't need to look too hard to stumble upon the fact that it is rejected as being sugar-coated totalitarianism.

So you're trying to refute the totalitarian push represented by Trump's abuses with a theory that is known to represent a totalitarian push.
Some people think it’s valid that the president be the absolute executive. I have no opinion on whether that should be true or not.
Even if the president was the absolute executive, they still wouldn’t be a dictator.
When trumps EOs no longer can be blocked by judges I’ll believe he is one. Until then we still have our checks and balances.
I encourage you to read what’s actually happening and not just headlines or tweets.
It clearly is.
> Trumps stuff is already being blocked.
That's like claiming there isn't a rape problem because a rapist attempts at raping someone is already being blocked.
What’s happening here isn’t really the forming of a dictatorship, it’s more single party alignment coupled with a majority in the three branches.
For example there’s nothing stopping congress from sending articles of impeachment followed by removal, other than the fact that there’s no consensus. But there’s no consensus because there’s alignment on the current activities.
TLDR: a sufficient amount of congress implicitly endorses trumps activities.
