I could never understand why a wing, within a branch of government, would voluntarily give up the power delegated to them by the Constitution by accepting unconstitutional executive orders.It's just another sign of the imbalance found in our system currently. The court thinks it can legislate from the bench, the presidents think they can just get things done with the flick of a pen, and the legislatures are too gridlocked to do anything about it.
it's a combination of laziness, and the fact that they can still get goodies for the constituents (and keep their jobs) from the crumbs the other branches drop to them.
