This is
" real
" not normal
" not okay.
Donald Trump: "Then I have an Article 2, where I have the right to do whatever I want as president."
FACT CHECK: False.
The president was speaking on Tuesday to the Turning Point USA event audience.
Article 2 of the United States Constitution does not, in fact, grant the president any such power.
