From the supplier: President Ronald Reagan never fully exercised the executive privilege, rather he sought accommodations with Congress. He further weakened a presidential power that had already lost stature because of Richard Nixon's coverup in the Watergate scandal. Furthermore, Congress can resist executive privilege by issuing subpoenas, delaying confirmation hearings, and impeaching the president.
