Tweety said many times during his campaign that Obama wrote Executive Orders because he could not get any real work done. Tweety said Obama wrote Exec Orders to make time to play golf.

But . . . here Tweety flipped even before being elected. A confused man!

Tweety is all over the map on EOs admittedly. Sometimes he scares me. He CRA. Is he just being a demented 70 year old man?
"Trump: Obama 'led the way' on executive orders"

"Donald Trump says President Obama’s irresponsible use of executive orders has paved the way for him to also use them freely if he wins the presidential race."
Tweety makes no sense!
Tweety signed more Executive Orders than anyone in 100 days, AND played golf 16 times.
OK, Tweety is showing flexibility?
"Trump touts executive orders he once lambasted"

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/25/trump-touts-executive-orders-he-once-lambasted.html
"White House aides said that Trump will have signed 32 executive orders by Friday, the most of any president in their first 100 days since World War II. That's a far cry from Trump's heated campaign rhetoric, in which he railed against his predecessor's use of executive action late in his tenure as President Barack Obama sought to maneuver around a Republican Congress. Trump argued that he, the consummate deal maker, wouldn't need to rely on the tool."
OK, politicians always flip flop. Tweety said he would fulfill all his promises, so he is using Executive Orders to do that. But Executive Orders are very limited and Tweety criticized Obama for not getting any legislation passed.
BUT Tweety also said Obama used EOs to get around the constitution and to get around Congress..
"Presidents frequently turn to executive orders when they struggle to advance their agendas through Congresses controlled by the opposition party. In Trump's case, he's struggled even though both houses of Congress are in the hands of Republicans; his health care bill never even came for a vote in the House of Representatives after it drew sharp criticism from moderate and conservative Republicans alike."
More . . .
"A review of Trump's executive orders reveals that a number of them represent necessary first steps at unraveling Obama-era environmental safeguards and financial service regulations. In some cases, there is no other way around those administrative hoops and some of the orders have bringing about major changes. Among them: his late March order that directed federal agencies to rescind any existing regulations that "unduly burden the development of domestic energy resources," a move that rolls back environmental protections that was denounced by Democrats and environmentalists and cheered by Republicans who advocate energy independence.
But many of Trump's executive orders signed with great fanfare have had little immediate impact. And many simply order reviews of pressing issues that push decision-making down the line."
Example:
"And while Trump has pledged to overhaul the nation's tax code, the order he signed on Friday simply commissions a review of the nation's tax regulations."
And here is an example of a hardline ideologue saying it is OK for Tweety to use EOs, but was not OK for Obama. Either this person dislikes Democrats AT ANY COST, or she dislikes BLACK PEOPLE doing exactly what the white man does.
""Unlike his predecessor who abused executive authority to expand the size and scope of the federal government in an end run around Congress, President Trump is using his legal authority to restrain Washington bureaucrats," said White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders."
I almost think Sarah was being racists and here is why:
"Trump is far from the first president to turn to governing by executive orders signed from the friendly confines of the Oval Office rather than by legislation that would need to wend its way through the halls of Congress. Obama had frequently criticized his predecessor, George W. Bush, for governing unilaterally, but he too turned to the executive action, particularly after the Republicans seized control of Capitol Hill."
So why did she criticize Obama for using EOs, noting all the others who used EOs were white.
The eyes don't lie Sarah. Facts tell the tale Sarah. Are you being a racist?
Here is the EOs count in this article:
"Obama signed 276 during his eight years in office, slightly less than Bush (291) and Bill Clinton (364) did in their two terms, according to data compiled by the University of California-Santa Barbara. Executive orders were used relatively infrequently until Theordore Roosevelt ushered in a new era of executive action at the beginning of the 19th century, signing more than 1,000 while in office and establishing a template his successors. Franklin D. Roosevelt, president during the Great Depression and World War II, signed more than 3,700 during his 12-plus years in office."
