Executive authority is strictly an Article II POTUS prerogative, not a privilege extended to former presidents or electoral candidates. Donald Trump is not the incumbent chief executive; his tenure as the 45th President concluded January 20, 2021. Therefore, he possesses no constitutional power to issue a legally binding executive order that would be codified in the Federal Register. Any document he 'signs' lacks the force of law and cannot be termed an 'executive order' in the operational governmental sense. Market participants considering 'yes' are fundamentally misinterpreting the distribution of federal power and the constitutional limitations on a private citizen. This isn't a policy debate; it's a constitutional certainty regarding presidential authority. 100% NO — invalid if Trump is re-inaugurated prior to May 2nd, 2024.
