You know who you sound like?
Richard Nixon: "Well when the president does it, that means that it is not illegal."
By your logic he also subsumes the IRS, so would you be okay if he took his sharpie to your tax returns?
Aside from the fact that he may have broken a law, which his supporters don't seem to mind, call me crazy but I have a little issue with a POTUS who acts like a 3 year old.
Trump is the head of the agency. His office subsumes their office. Whatever he wants to do to one of their maps is within his purview - they serve at his pleasure, not vice versa. The tail of the snake doesn't bite the head.
If the president alters a map, that map is not altered. It is work product.
