Pardon me for not finding “vulnerable people need to die for my ideology” very convincing.

Oh the president can, and has. Even to extremes, or am I the only one who remembers learning about the 101st Infantry Division escorting students?
That was applying the constitution's rules on equality (as ruled by the Supreme Court of the United States). The executive can use its power to enforce laws, but it can't use its power to create new laws. That is the purview of congress. Once congress creates the laws then the president is in a position to enforce them, but not before then.
You might want to learn about the civics and workings of the US if you're an American. Most of it isn't that complicated.
Lmao. There's a federal crime for abusing the rights of people under the color of authority.
Let's use that.
Sure. That's not really for when a law is written that may abuse some people's rights if that's what you're implying. Sure, use that to go after police officers and stuff, but you can't just arrest everyone who writes a law you don't agree with, even if it is unconstitutional. That's the court's job to handle.
You can arrest someone for using that law though.
