Trump seems to be signing an absolute shitload of executive orders despite having the entire government mostly in agreement with his policies.

and here I thought Republicans didn’t like rule by executive orders. I thought they wanted Congress to have a say in these things.

It’s okay when it’s their guy, but not when it’s a legally, democratically-elected President who’s being gaslit by the republican majority who openly vowed to gaslight him at every turn.

It’s a legally, democratically-elected Republican President that will have his own Congressional issues.

That is matter of opinion. Sure, he was legally elected. But is it really a democratically-elected when the majority of the voters didn’t vote for him?

Besides, it never stopped Obama from using Executive Privellege to get what he wanted so I am unsure as to why it’s even a topic of dicsussion.

But that is my point. Whenever Obama used executive privilege to get what he wanted, the Republicans were outraged. But now a Republican President seems to be doing the same thing.
