17. But it's not a law

So there's nothing to enforce. If he had a boss, then maybe he could be fired or reprimanded somehow for violating a policy, but he is the ultimate decider as far as adhering to policy goes and what the penalties are. All we can do is keep score of the violations and stew about it. Hopefully some of his supporters will take note, but I wouldn't hold your breath.
