Given everything going on in this country, I don't think a silly law from 1944 is going to deter the current administration from trying.

This "current administration" thinking is exactly the problem. When your version of the current administration had the power to diminish the power of the administration, did it do that? None of them do.

Somehow there's always a failure of imagining that whatever the current administration is won't always be current.

Well, that's the fun part of democracy. You don't get to bet on the status quo remaining the same.
