'He's trying to do government by executive order," one constitutional law expert says.

Trump has issued more than 130 executive orders, declared at least eight national emergencies.

He's signed the greatest number of executive orders in his first 100 days of any president going back 88 years .

Critics say some action verges on authoritarianism, noting his respect for "strongman" leaders.

A clear clash is underway between the Trump administration and the courts as various groups and individuals challenge his policies.

Trump has berated judges who ruled against him as "radical left" and called for District Judge James Boasberg's impeachment.

The FBI last week arrested a Milwaukee judge, Hannah Dugan , and accused her of obstructing immigration agents.
