    Have you heard of executive orders? Sure he can’t do it directly, but imposing a 100% tax on corporations/individuals buying more than a certain number of residential properties? A large tax on rental income from residential properties? Quit acting like he’s powerless.

      The President can’t impose taxes, bud. That’s Constitutionally delegated to Congress.

      Now, if you said “use the military to arrest any corporation that owns more than five residences” you would have a case.
