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:
Not Clinton fan but this idiot is out for himself and himself only……to think otherwise is to totally ignore what he is…..in indicted verses settling lawsuits…..both are as BSD as the other….ignorant is voting for a commie sympathizer…..
Like most of your horse$#%&!@*orders they will be flushed when we get a real president in office….you MUSLIM BASTARD
dont worry TRUMP just got a heavy duty SHREDDER for all those EXE BS orders
And Trump can’t reverse Obama’s order? Wish he’d remove that American flag pin from his lapel. He hasn’t earned the right to wear it with the destruction he has brought upon this country in his 8 years as president. Time for him to kick rocks!!!!
impeach…
I have zero respect for this moron. Because of his hatred for America, not because of his color.
This is not true. The congress can write a new law and Trump can sign it. If this stands it will be because the GOP allows it to stand. With both houses and the Supreme Court they have NO excuse.
It’s bit the AMOUNT of executive orders, it’s what they purport to do. Quality (content) over Quantity.
Once again helping his Muslim brothers
Well then let’s drill in your back yard. I am a conservative but we don’t need this$#%&!@* It’s 2017 oil is old news why can’t you understand this. Come out of the ice age already.
