Trump tests power, outpaces Obama on executive orders
(Worthy News) – President Trump, who criticized President Obama as ineffective four years ago for relying heavily on executive orders, is increasingly wielding his presidential pen on everything from tax relief to lowering drug prices as the election nears.
With five months remaining in his term, Mr. Trump is on a pace to exceed Mr. Obama’s total number of executive orders issued in the Democrat’s first term. Mr. Trump has signed 179 executive orders; Mr. Obama issued 185 in four years, according to the Federal Register.
When Mr. Trump was running for president in March 2016, he characterized Mr. Obama’s frequent use of executive orders as proof of his inability to work with Congress. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
