Unlike Barry. Barry made it clear within the 1st week he was President in 2008 that he was NOT going to be limited by the Constitution or Law.He's going to be backing off of everything he promised during his campaign.
Because Trump is the President, not a Dictator
How? He declared his administration would not enforce the existing DOMA law because HE did not like it. Ummm, I'm sorry, Fidel Obama - that's not how we (used to) do things in the US. That was his approach from then on, however. Over and over he by-passed Congress.
Obama actually set the precedence for Trump to do the same thing - there is a great thread about all the powers Trump now has at his disposal thanks to Barry...but I do not think (hope) he will not use them because he ran on 'draining the swamp' and returning the country to the path of upholding, defending, and enforcing the Constitution and Rule of Law.
Obama also didn't go after members of the previous administration for war crimes.
