On Jul 11, 2012 after Barrack Obama signed several Executive Orders in his first term, Trump tweeted:

 

Why is @BarackObama  constantly issuing executive orders that are major power grabs of authority? This is the latest

 

In two terms Obama issued 276 EO's.  Trump, barely into his second term has now issued 279 EO's.  Many of Trump's EO's attempt to seize power that no President is entitled to.

 

Trump must really have admired Obama.... because:

Pathetic. 

Trump thinks he is the king. And unfortunately, too many GOP politicians don't tell him straight that he is not the king and should not try to behave like a king.

Obama is still in the lead in terms of executive orders to murder American citizens by drone strike without trial.

If he thought he was a king he'd send soldiers into Congress and the Courts. Just as real kings did in Europe. He has done neither. 

 

You guys just make up things in your fevered heads and run with it. It truly is ( once again ) 

 

Pathetic.

What you write is like: If you are in a war then you use nuclear weapons. If you don't use them then you are not in a war.

Really?

Is there any other American president who ever used as many Executive Orders like Trump?

You know there is a congress and senate, right? Why do you think they exist?

PATHETIC is the PERFECT word.

First of all, nonsensical drivel. Apply your intellect to posts. 

 

Or maybe you did and that's the best you can do? 

 

Oh, dear.

 

Anyway, he learned from the first time when the administrative state turned against him.  He made it clear that he would do this during the election campaign. He won a clean sweep. 

 

Get over it.

So, according to you, because he won, he can do whatever he wants, correct?

but they might be narrow-minded people fixed in their ways who are blocking things that shouldn't be blocked.

grabbing more power doesn't necessarily mean grabbing power for himself for the sole greedy purpose of grabbing power nefariously. although it could. but it could also just mean he wants to get sh*t done quickly without being blocked by endless bureaucracy.

Within the law and his executive powers, yes.

Good thing he has Presidential immunity. The only president who ever really needed it.

 

That might be my new response to the Trump is evil matras: "yeah well at least he didnt murder American citizens like Obama"

Googles your friend, man.

 

Trump is way down the list with 220, fewer than Obama with 276, fewer than Carter with 320.

 

Even less than FDR who signed 3,721.

The problem is that huge changes should be implemented carefully and with considerations what could go wrong.

Doing something fast without much thinking is not a good concept for big changes for a huge country. 

Because there are always unexpected consequences.

Within the law is a good idea - now explain that to Trump.

But then, I wonder if he doesn't know the laws of just doesn't care.

It's almost daily another one of these kinds of threads pop up.

 

You guys are not coping well at all. 

 

X2 pathetic.

I'm not seeing any huge changes yet.  You need to be more specific.  

Trump's draining the swamp.  Do you have a problem with him stopping corruption or protecting vulnerable people?  Why?

It says something really sad about TRUMP and his so called policies that you feel the need to even ask that question!!

Another of your ambiguous posts!

Which President are you posting about needing Presidential Immunity and what for?

Question was only needed after the poster made a ridiculous comment.

 

Care to comment on that or are you going to remain woefully ignorant ?

Are you really asking this ? Scroll back it's quite clear who he is talking about. 

 

Good grief trying to make an argument just because you hate Trump.

 

Get a grip.

If you could post something that made sense then I could, if I felt like it, make a meaningful response.
