and their average reign is two weeks

i think obama actually used his power more than trump, while trump is doing a lot of executive orders its my opinion that executive orders should only be used in order for the government to react quickly to changes in the world but when obama did that "gay marrage" thing thats an example of an executive order being used to adress a social issue that should be handled by a greater society and doesent require the quick action of a president. any time power is used this way by a president is when i have issue

that better be a metaphorical death, because here, presidents don't die in office often, and the american people tend to get very upset. doubly so if its believed the opposing party was believed to be at fault

@Arch-Fiend give it time, obama had 8 years.

you have to read what i type in order to respond properly to what i say

I thought Obama was famous for his Exec Orders, cuz the reps fully blocked him 2nd term in congress

my opinion is simply that i think some executive orders are abuse of power while others arnt and that system doesent seem very regulated

cuz i remember there being an Exec Order to ignore immigration procedures for DACA people

oh they are,
Exec orders are technically absolute authority

well they are supposed to be a way for the president to fight back against the congress.

and congress has a way to fight back against the,

checks and balances

i dont think executive orders should be used that way

the way you fight against congress is veto

that requires congress to pass something to start with

executive orders if they are absolute power is just a system that is outside the normal governemnt

you cannot veto a bill that never made it to the floor

that is where exec orders come in

i dont think thats how the power was intended

to get past a party controlling the congress from keeping laws from even getting voted on

Executive Orders are exactly for that reason

They're there so that a President can enforce his view
but can be instantly dismantled by the next president

but the idea is that they aren't written out willey nillilly

only for like very special situations

whats the point of having a congress of 200 people if your just going to have a guy with no limit to how he can undermine it?

there is a limit

the Supreme Court overrides executive orders

yeah, executive orders are not just law

afaik

you can basically ignore them if you really wanted to

well look at that travel ban from those 7 muslim nations

didn't like half of America ignore that? and its currently awaiting SCOTUS final call?

"Like both legislative statutes and regulations promulgated by government agencies, executive orders are subject to judicial review and may be overturned if the orders lack support by statute or the Constitution."

yeah so there cant be an Exec Order to kill all male gingers 😦

but there is already a genocide on the black gingers!

yeah im not worried about that level of abuse

i mean, where are the black gingers?!

oh theres plenty

just reorder the letters in ginger 😉

my consern is the use of executive orders to basicly do the congress's job for them. which often ends up undermining state govenrments

true, but afaik trump does the opposite in some cases, demanding congress fix it instead of just throwing an Exec order
