When Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination, Barack Obama probably thought that his legacy was secure. The man everyone said could not win was going up against Hillary Clinton, the woman who pledged to keep Obama’s legacy intact.
Unfortunately for Obama, almost everyone got it wrong. Donald Trump won big in November, and now eight years of Obama-era regulations are set to be dismantled under the new president-elect.
But Obama isn’t giving up. Despite having warned Trump to not over-use executive orders, the lame duck president is now using all the power at his disposal to keep Trump from undoing his fragile legacy.
Obama’s latest last-minute power-grab has to do with offshore drilling. Trump may have campaigned on a promise to make America more energy independent, but if Obama gets his way, he may not be able to.
See how he’s trying to keep Trump from drilling for oil off the American coastline on the next page:
The dumb as cannot without congress approval
I don’t like him at all.
F**k him
Trump can undo any and probably all, of Obama’s executive orders. If they didn’t go through Congress, they aren’t set in stone. Say bye bye to your so-called legacy, Obama!!
Good
This unprecedented move might be Obama’s most appalling move yet. Not only does it prevent America from easy energy independence, but it comes off as incredibly childish. Obama didn’t get what or who he wanted, so now’s he’s making it impossible for his successor to succeed.
If there is anything I know about the government, nothing is permanent. Just ask the Native Americans
The links attached to this website are bogus and although some of the info by this site may be true, I will no longer follow it. Bogus links says bogus.
3 more days won’t go by fast enough
He can not place a permanent order on anything. Once POTUS TRUMP dissolves them, they are illegal and can not be revived. Go to hell Odumbass.
