I would say yes, insofar as the text and SCOTUS interpretations of the constitution count as law, so anything that violates, for example, the separation of powers would be illegal.

But hasn't the SCOTUS also ruled that anything the President does as a part of his duties legal? Where does that ruling actually end?
I believe that’s for criminal prosecution and probably has a lot of room for additional precedents to be set
I hope that that precedent starts to get set here, because right now it's not looking good.
