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:
Now he is doing all this$#%&!@*he never done anything in the 8 yrs he was in the WH a little to late now it is just for petty revenge whiner oh yeah he said on some comedy that he will be going down as president yeah the worst President in history now how funny is that bozo i guess the last laugh is on your sorry ass

Lol. Ban what Michelle’s school lunches?
If this idiot taught us nothing it is how to break the law — if he gets it passed I guess it is up to future presidents to decide if it is going to be enforced….. and what is the definition of “permanent” – I think permanency for a lot of things ends January 20, 2017…..
Why’s everyone getting so worked up about this? It’s only “permanent” for another week…
And I bet you pawn yourself off as a Christian, right Jim Fennell?
Ignorant comment. We have been drilling offshore since 1890’s. California had the first offshore well off of Carpinteria! Oil is a natural product made by nature.
No sweat easily undone by a true leader–something this jerk was not–I wish he would take lapel flag pin off–he is a disgrace to the flag
Evil!!
Pete you do know that the Constitution gives the authority for presidents to use executive orders. Some people just are not very smart.
