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:
Obama needs to keep his opinions to himself.They don’t matter anymore..Our President will do just fine straightening his mess out
There is no truth here
Grow up already

LOL – Wow, all you people saying “Get over it about Trump” but are still “hanging on” to your Obama issues.
B******t will be undone
What one president does the next can undo, presidents can’t make laws!
Doesn’t matter. Still hate him. Stop destroying us already!
Hey little boy you’ve had eight years to do something and all you’ve done is given the American people some B******t health care that will have to be replaced.BARF
his executive orders are worth about what the sheet of paper he is wasting to write them on and not really even that much
