Legal Question in Constitutional Law in Texas

Presidential Powers

I have re-read the U.S. Constitution, which gives specific, limited powers to the Presidency. How can the President take over corporations and such maneuvers, which are clearly outside his realm of authority? What recourse do citizens have to challenge the overreach of powers?
