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:
No.. but his regulations are oppressive and will be erased …
Pfffftttt
Start drilling for oil, mining coal, making steel, making products here,lets get America back to work.
Who cares. He still won the electoral college big time. Get over it neoliberals. LMAO !
Executive orders of this nature cannot be permanent….not the nature of that power…..you can word it any way you want to, but the next president can resend it. I wish the scare Taptic$#%&!@* which is what it is, would stop. The election is over…..we have a new president. HE swore to make changes to “Make America Great Again”, let’s se what he and the majority congress can and will do…….
Arrogant narcissist!!!
Ted Boyle I saw a video where Obama, himself, was at a University reading from one of his books. His grandmother was called toots. He read where toots called him “Barry”. I was wondering if his real name was in fact Obama. But by him reading that passage convinced me that Barry is his real name. So the name on his so called birth certificate is false. His birth certificate has been proven to be forged by two different companies in two different countries. He has lied to Americans during the entire 8 years he has been in office.
Trump will dispose of all his b******t in the first 100 days if not sooner
Stupid$#%&!@*.. Nothing you do is permanent!!!
Just go!
