It isn't. It's just a part of Trump's creeping fascism, which is being challenged legally in over a hundred cases right now. I assume this will be another such case, if someone has the time and money to push back, and doesn't mind being targeted for retribution.
Trump never intended to support our Constitution and laws. As a malignant narcissist, he will always push his boundaries and leave it to others to keep him in line with relevant laws and truths. But good luck doing that, considering how he has a largely-enabling Congress and Supreme Court, who apparently don't mind their own powers being usurped -- at least for now.
Edit: I also should have mentioned that Trump is a paranoid delusional, who sees anyone opposing him as evil. I assume that is another aspect of his malignant narcissism.
So what the U.S. is going through right now is a huge psychodrama, which a majority of citizens have brought down on our heads by their various dishonesties.
