When Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination, Barack Obama probably thought that his legacy was secure. The man everyone said could not win was going up against Hillary Clinton, the woman who pledged to keep Obama’s legacy intact.
Unfortunately for Obama, almost everyone got it wrong. Donald Trump won big in November, and now eight years of Obama-era regulations are set to be dismantled under the new president-elect.
But Obama isn’t giving up. Despite having warned Trump to not over-use executive orders, the lame duck president is now using all the power at his disposal to keep Trump from undoing his fragile legacy.
Obama’s latest last-minute power-grab has to do with offshore drilling. Trump may have campaigned on a promise to make America more energy independent, but if Obama gets his way, he may not be able to.
See how he’s trying to keep Trump from drilling for oil off the American coastline on the next page:
Go pack … the moving van is out front and get the hell out of the White House …..!
Exept he didn’t break the law at all
This dolt is such a hack
I like how the article insinuates that Trump is the one who’s going to be drilling offshore and that the president is acting. So stupid and biased.
Amen Melvin
Also all you people calling saying Obama hates America and all this s*** Trump is the one sucking Russian$#%&!@*literally putting his lips around Putin’s penis and sucking it till Putin blows his load right in America’s face
He can make all the laws he wants and no one is going to listen him now………he can go fly a kite as far as I am concerned I don’t give a$#%&!@* If I was him I would watch myself going to my new home
And by “permanent” he really only means until 12:01 pm on January 20, 2017.
Because ANYTHING one President can DO, the next president can UNDO, the exact same way.
Only the congress can make law, and even laws can be changed by the next congress!
I’m sorry but Democrats already gave us permission to$#%&!@*women. They did that in their support of Bill Clinton, a serial sexual predator.
Obama’s presidential Library needs to be built in the ghetto in Chicago
