1) I was answering a special question. The question was not about Cruz, so the point is irrelevant.
2) Do you think the rule was supported by Trump, and he signed it out because of his very close respect for the constitutional limits of presidential power? Then they could have made it into a law by congress.
By the way, executive orders are constitutionally accepted practice, that has been used by recent
president I know of. Is there any specific legal reason you think this one is not legitimate.
Can you give me a reference (a court decision, or a legal scholar discussion) on this point.
The little constitutional law I took was several years ago.

And studies like that are often used to support gun control legislation.
I remember as a child, everyone seemed to smoke. I remember people smoking in hospitals, McDonald's, in line at the DMV, movie theaters, every restaurant, even the poles that hold up the ropes that kept people in line, jad ashtrays in the top.
Then someone decided, the smokers had to go to one side of the building. Smokers relented as it seemed reasonable. Then it was decided that smokers had to go outside..... again, smokers just wanted to be left alone, so they relented.
Then smokers were told they were too close to the front.... go down the street.
And on, and on, unril now, it's near impossible to find a legal place for a smoker to go.
People think the NRA is an evil empire of the evil Gun Industry. It's not, they are made of 5 million private citizens, who are taking a stand, instead of being shoved down the slope.

I am posting on the OP title mainly
. With failing vision it is very difficult for me to read a lot, some things do come in with lines separated and print in nice straight lines.......and soe things are kind of hard to read. Forgive me if I did not read all of your posts...most people do not, just answer to one here and one there.....God bless you. By the way,I pray daily for someone who used to attempt to kill me when I was a child, once hanging me and the rope broke and nother time attempted to electrocute me. There were other times, once putting me in a well.......I thank God for that person serveral times a day to this day. It is easy when you realize they do notknow any better. After about 60 years that person accepted Jesus Christ as savior and then passed away about three months later........I thank God his soul is saved and he will be with the family in the Kingdom forever, amen.

This is from the Fortune Magazine article about it. It sounds like the law would prevent Alzheimer's/dementia patients from purchasing firearms... the phrase "mentally incapable of handling their own financial affairs" seems to narrow down the people being reported to just the elderly, or the severely mentally incapacitated.
Repealing this (on the surface) would not seem like it would have a huge effect on allowing the truly dangerously mentally unstable to purchase...(schizophrenic, those on mind altering drugs, etc...) since it doesn't appear to have been directed at them, anyway.
Still, it should have been left in effect, IMO.... knowing what very little I know about it at this point.
We don't know (at least I don't) whether that Exec Order was legal, or not. The American Civil Liberties Union seemed to think it was illegal.
Not that that is a huge indication that it was illegal....

ACLU did not object about the legality, but about the merit. They thought it was unfair.
