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:
Well permanent means 10 days from now.
David Cutler, his executive orders are beneficial to the American public. The Donald will be screwing you over stealing from you every chance he gets. Sucker!
From my observations of our government, I doubt that anything is permanent. It is just wishful thinking.
Good, maybe he will.
David Cutler Really? Illegal Alien Amnesty is a executive order? Which number would that be. I searched Illegal Alien Amnesty Executive Order and I couldn’t seem to find it. Since you obviously know what you are talking about when it comes to Executive Orders I could really use your help finding the Illegal Alien Amnesty Executive Order. By the way, our government doesn’t call them illegal aliens.
His “permanent” ban will last about 2 weeks.
GTFA!!
Well done he 21 we can change it don’t worry he’s out then
