One thing that is being begged over and over during this Trump regime is this: the current separation of powers is not enough. The executive branch needs to be broken down: the president cant be the one who controls who gets prosecuted or not.

Separation of powers doesn't do anything when all branches are controlled by the same ideology.

True, and we already see this with the Executive and Legislative branches, and even the Judicial branch (especially the Supreme Court)
