I've been reading that Trump was going to "sign" a health care plan, first as early as this week, and then yesterday at his presser he said as early as "this month". He also said he was going to sign something on immigration "next month". I have also read that he for some reason thinks SCOTUS said he could rule by executive order, bypassing Congress, as the result of something the Court said in the DACA decision.
Why isn't this being covered more extensively? It is dangerous and clearly a case of blatant authoritarianism. So is he going to force a Constitutional crisis just before the election?

The pharma bill he signed two weeks ago was another one, although he hasn't technically unveiled it yet.
