And where's the leadership? This idea that we can government society without consensus is killing us. It doesn't work.

Because they will be stopped at the Senate anyway?

EO's first based on existing laws, ask congress to get their shit together I'd say around July/August this year.

Repubs do not have a 2/3 majority in the Senate which makes it impossible to overcome democrat obstruction

Yeah. It would require a persuasive leader to pull off. Damn the bad luck.

He has "a pen and a phone", just like OBAMA SAID.

So he doesn't have a mandate. Especially now with his approval rating on about everything in the tank.

Trump doesn't have a 'mandate.'

Which is why he's behaving like an authoritarian despot.

 

[Donald H]

Trump's foreign policy for America is reaching new highs.

His biggest worry is that the 'deep state' could bring it all crashing down if he continues to interfere with Bibi and the war against Russia. There's 'still' no way that Russia can be allowed to win, after billions of taxpayer's dollars .........................

He said his EO'S are legislation.
His worthless congress says jack.

Maybe the same place Biden's were when he signed all of those EOs that sent fuel prices into the stratosphere and started a four year inflationary spiral to the moon. Wake up.

For years and decades, the "R"s make promises. And more promises. Somehow one or two or even a few more show up to deter potential legislation. We don't know why. Promises made. Many not kept. To even get to what you call conservatism it is going to take some years. And that is if they pass the legislation needed to get there. Up to now it is not in them to do it.
