If President Hillary Clinton were running the country by EXECUTIVE ORDER the GOP would be impeaching/investigating. Where are the Dems?

The GOP is thrilled as he** to let The Donald run the table. Ignore the Constitution. LIE LIE LIE LIE LIE. Take us  back to the bad old days. They don't give a rat's  a** because horrible as he is he is THEIR GUY and my oh my they will do whatever they hafta to do to keep him afloat. Even if it kills us. Which it will.

    Hello Rosie:

    Congress passes laws, and the president enforces them..  But, congress doesn't tell the president HOW to enforce them, and executive orders is HOW the president MANAGES the executive branch.. 

    For example, congress'll pass a law that says all undocumented people MUST be deported..  Well, we don't have enough busses to deport ALL of them tomorrow, so there has to be a plan in place spelling out HOW the president is going to carry out his duties..  That's what executive orders are for.

    So you have no problem with the multiple exec orders issued by The Donald then? Hmm.  Thank you for your thoughtful and informative reply excon and Happy Friday! :)

  • Obama signed quite a few and they didn't rise up in arms over it....too much. Here is a chart showing the executive orders of all the presidents we have ever had:
