President Donald Trump doesn't refrain from endlessly bragging about his achievements as the POTUS. Trump not only talks boastingly but also makes the most absurd claims such as having total authority as president.

A conservative group accuses Trump in a new ad of viewing himself as a king, particularly in light of his recent claim that he has total authority as president. The aforesaid ad comprises footages of Trump’s latest White House coronavirus briefings with an animated crown atop the president's head.

The Republicans have come up with the ad for the Rule of Law and it is slated to be aired Friday on “Fox & Friends” in D.C. and will be shared on all digital platforms. The narrator points out that Americans are sacrificing to combat what can be deemed as the worst public health crisis in a century, while governors and leaders are leaving no stone unturned to keep communities safe and taking crucial decisions to safely reopen the economies.

President Trump, on the other hand, thinks he has the absolute power to order states what to do, the narrator adds. The ad comprises footages of a recently concluded briefing when Trump announced, “when somebody is the president of the United States, the authority is total.”

According to Trump, he has the power to decide the right time to reopen state economies, rather than governors. Without naming any of them, Trump claimed numerous provisions of the Constitution give him absolute authority and later announced that he would assign governors with the authority to reopen their states' economies, The Hill reported.

Trump faced strong criticism for his earlier remark, particularly from New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo who said Trump was wrong and even cited the 10th Amendment. which explains that powers not delegated to the U.S. by the Constitution, nor restricted by it to the states, are either reserved to the state respectively, or the people.

The Constitution has several ambiguous things that are debatable, but this isn't one of those questionable things, Cuomo pointed out during a briefing earlier this week. He asked if Americans want a king or a president.

People in almost every state are following stay-at-home measures to restrict the spread of coronavirus, shuttering nonessential businesses and even schools. The United States has reported over 639,000 confirmed cases of COVID-19 and an alarming 30,990 deaths, according to data from Johns Hopkins University.
