Undoing Trump's damage as quickly and efficiently as possible. I like it!
So 70+ million people still voted for trump. Let’s say next election the next president does the same thing....undoes everything Biden has done in his 4 years. You are ok with that?
Or you are just ok with this because you don’t like trumps work?
I don’t like Biden’s work so I guess I’ll be ok if the next president does this ?????
I’m not ok with any president doing this.
Sorry. Not entertaining your BS on this one...
Why? You clearly stated you liked it bc he was undoing everything trump did.
What happens if the next president undoes everything Biden does in his first two weeks....not ok?!
Doesn’t make sense right?
And I get there are pandemic things in there, but this poster was clearly celebrating Biden undoing all of trumps work.
Unless you were on here blasting Trump for his use of EOs 4 years ago you have no point or case whatsoever.
I loathed Trump for decades and was horrified when he was elected because I knew he would be the disaster that he was but I never complained about his use of EOs. It was his right.
Yes, I complained about what they were for. But not how he did it.
Yes, many are thrilled that he is undoing what Trump did because we think what Trump did was terrible for this country and brought extensive harm to many. That's our right and no one should apologize for it.
Look, people can go ahead and complain. Knock yourselves out. Really. But the last four years the majority of this country was disgusted so I guess it's your turn now. Do what we did - write to your reps, protest, use your voice. Organize with others who don't want a mask mandate on federal property, don't want to rejoin the WHO, Paris, prefer to ban Muslims, etc. Whatever floats your boat. But don't come on here and say "hypocrisy" unless you spoke out against the same shit that Trump did. Because frankly, most people I know spent very little time thinking or complaining about 45 because we were too busy fighting him. It was much more productive.

This whole board was created because of people complaining and ******** about Trump. So I don't know what you are talking about. The whole United States was complaining and ******** before he was even elected.
I still go by what I say and that EO need to be restricted to items of immediate danger. I thought that with Trump and I still think it with Biden and all those before them.

Clearly you didn't read what I actually wrote.
I never said people didn't complain about him. Of course we did. Because there was three plus decades of evidence to show that he didn't give a shit about anyone but himself and it was going to be a disaster. And it was.
I said that *I* didn't care about his use of EOs in particular and that most people *I* know spent more time fighting him than complaining about him. What I didn't add was that I meant AFTER he was elected when there were actual actions to protest against.
Feel free to go ahead and look up my posts and you will see that most of them from 01/17 to this fall (when things got salty around here again) were about taking actual action.

I cannot wrap my head around the fact that there are people who STILL cannot see the why Trump was like NO other president in the history of this nation. The way he conducted himself, behaved, spoke, lead etc were so epically embarrassing, dangerous and chaotic that it created a division in this country like we've never seen before. Half of this country KNEW that Trump being elected would be an absolute disaster which is why everyone complained even before he ever stepped foot in office. And we were right. 100% right. He was every bit the POS we expected and worse. SO much worse.
Anyone getting their panties in a bunch after Biden's first week in office where he did nothing crazy, chaotic, dangerous or damaging just sounds whiny for the sake of being whiny. Biden hasn't given anyone a reason (yet) to b!tch and moan. In fact, he's done a great job already of bringing a sense of calm and distinguished leadership back.
As for EO's, every president issues them. It is what it is.

Re: Record number of EO by Biden
So regardless of whether or not, you agree or disagree with what Biden is doing in his EO's, what is your stance in general on the use of EO'sl?
I believe Karen and I have already stated that we don't believe they should be used for anything but emergencies.
I don't believe they should be used to set policy or to undo what a previous president has done. That is what the legislature is for. Otherwise, I firmly believe that we are doing an end-around on democracy.
Some EO's Trump signed, I liked. Some I didn't. Some of the things Biden did I like, some I don't. In general, however, the EO is a tool that I believe should be used sparingly.
Do you find it troubling that a President (any president), wields his pen this way?

I am not defending Trump at all. I think at the end of his term it was absolute chaos and detrimental to our Democracy. I will fully admit that I voted for Trump in 2016. I loath Hillary and she was a terrible choice for the Democratic ticket. I honestly thing that if they had Biden run or almost anyone else, Trump would not have won. But that is a mute point now because it happened.
This is about EOs. I am not saying that Biden can't do them, of course he can. I'm just saying after half the country screaming Trump was a dictator, the whole process of EOs should really be taken a look at so it is not abused. If we do not learn what failed in our democratic system and try to fix it, it will just happen over and over again.

So based on your logic of fixing to ensure things never happen again, I assume you are 100% in favor of convicting and sending to jail everyone who incited the riot on the capitol on Jan 6. Including Trump, Giuliani, Trump Jr, Hawlry, Cruz and the rest of them?
You must also be in favor of ending the electoral college which steals the presidency against the votes of the public and ending the filibuster.
Just making sure your logic holds.

I'm just saying after half the country screaming Trump was a dictator, the whole process of EOs should really be taken a look at so it is not abused. If we do not learn what failed in our democratic system and try to fix it, it will just happen over and over again.
So based on your logic of fixing to ensure things never happen again, I assume you are 100% in favor of convicting and sending to jail everyone who incited the riot on the capitol on Jan 6. Including Trump, Giuliani, Trump Jr, Hawlry, Cruz and the rest of them?
You must also be in favor of ending the electoral college which steals the presidency against the votes of the public and ending the filibuster.
Just making sure your logic holds.
I think if it is proven that they incited the riots they yes I think they should be brought to trial. I do not know if everyone on that list did but that is not my job to prove or disprove that.
As far as the electoral college, I don't know if it needs to be completely taken away but it needs to be revamped as I do not think it adequately shows the votes of the people. Filibusters are a waste of time.

Re: Record number of EO by Biden
Anyone having the power to make laws single handedly - unchecked and without legislative approval- is in my opinion a gross abuse of power and incredibly dangerous. I dont care if its Trump, Biden, Cuomo, whoever. I cannot believe it is permitted.

Executive Orders have been a staple of our democracy since our country's inception, even George Washington issued EO's. It's not a gross abuse of power, it's a right given to our Commander in Chief so that he may execute law that is in the best interest of our country.

Re: Record number of EO by Biden
I don't have a problem with EOs as long as they are of limited use. We have checks and balances for a reason and not everything should go through Congress. Some items are too urgent.
I don't think we should be going in and out of international organizations via executive order. Frankly, Trump never should have pulled us out of Paris and the WHO. This is not a partisan statement. Most Repubs wouldn't have done it either. Biden had a duty to reverse it. Now hopefully we can stop handling that type of stuff that way. Enough is enough.
Most of the EOs were to address emergencies (masks on federal property - a no brainer) or to undo what Trump did which never should have been done via executive order.
