My guess is that the imperial presidency is far down on the list of worries for most Americans. For those few that worry about it, it is likely because they do not like what the president is doing. Since the only way the US can have an imperial president is for the Congress to abdicate its constitutional power , maybe that is what they worry about, That is what I would worry about- a Congress that is afraid to take a stand because they would think it might cost them votes and they are more interested in keeping their job than in solving the country's problems.
i have no clue. -.-
They worry that presidents have become isolated policymakers who are unaccountable to the American people throught their representaives in Congress.
The Imperial Presidency was created in 1973.
'Imperial Presidency'. Think about the meanings of the two words. A President is a person elected to bw 'Head of state'. Imperial is the adjective for Empire. So Imperial Presidency would be a person electedm by the people of the empire, to be 'Head of an Empire.'.

The term Imperial Presidency is offensive because the president of the United States is supposed to come from common stock. The president is not supposed to be too powerful.
Arthur Schlesinger Jr
It means that the President is wielding his power in such a way that he appears more like a monarch than a democratic leader.
A. M. Schlesinger has written: 'Imperial presidency'
The imperial presidency has expanded the power and influence of the presidency. It has allowed presidents to bypass Congress and implement policies through executive orders and other unilateral actions. This has led to an increase in the use and abuse of executive power, undermining the separation of powers and checks and balances established by the Constitution.
a term coined by Arthur Schlesinger to describe the centralization of power in the presidency and the unconstitutional use of power by the federal executive
Jalex is so real it hurts
