The indignation doesn't come merely from the occurrence of the rights abuse. It comes also from the assertion that such abuses are within the president's prerogative.

If you believe such abuses did not occur, however, I would happily bet any amount of money to the contrary. It fits precisely within the pattern of behavior of this president.

Establish goal
Instruct lawyers what end result must be
Get legal reasoning from lawyers justifying end result
Take action under cloak of legal authority to accomplish goal
Keep everything secret
