Billionaire Mark Cuban liked to float his name in presidential speculation for years. If he were serious about it dsuring that time, perhaps he would have learned how the federal government even works.

On social media, conservative activist Christopher Rufo claimed that “the president should have more authority over the federal bureaucracy, so that it implements his policies faithfully,” while “Congress and the president should decentralize as much power as possible to states, localities, and families.” This is pretty boilerplate conservative stuff, and Rufo is correct.
