Which of the following is an example of a presidential use of inherent power? (1 point)

1 answer

Inherent powers are those that are not explicitly granted by the Constitution but are considered necessary for the president to carry out their duties. One classic example of a presidential use of inherent power is the decision to deploy military forces without a formal declaration of war from Congress. For instance, President Harry Truman's decision to engage in military actions during the Korean War in 1950 without Congressional approval is often cited as an example of the exercise of inherent powers.

If you have multiple specific examples to choose from, please provide them, and I can help identify which one best represents an inherent power.
