On October 20, 2020, the Federalist Society's Georgetown Law Student Chapter and the Regulatory Transparency Project hosted John C. Yoo and Saikrishna B. Prakash for an online discussion on the extent of executive power.

In his new book, "Defender in Chief," Yoo argues that President Trump – despite his populism – has become more often the defender rather than the opponent of the original Constitution. In "The Living Presidency," Prakash counters that Trump, like many modern presidents, has violated the Constitution's grant of executive power.
