Within the confines of the powers granted to the executive by law. The legislative branch grants such powers to the executive to act. Where th executive goes beyond that, the judicial branch rules against the executive branch. Checks and balances.

Man I hope Trump doesn't read this and get ideas. You are essentially saying that the executive branch should be given dictatorial powers now. Do away with checks and balances? Is that what you really want? Historically emergencies and crises have been used to justify tyranny and it's scary to see how the fearful yearn for it.
