Trump has signed more executive orders than any president in 50 years, funny that it upset him when previous presidents did it.
Jul 10, 2012 12:11:10 PM Why is @BarackObama constantly issuing executive orders that are major power grabs of authority? |

Did Spence write this speech for you?

As far as Pete's claim.
At one point I had read that he was on pace to be the highest. As of the first year or so, he had more than Obama at the same point.
His point remains valid though; he has been largely ineffective at working with congress as the great negotiator to get much through with the GOP controlling (I know not with the 60 vote majority) both houses. He beat on Obama for this on the trail and through twitter as being ineffective because Obama needed to use EO's.
If the GOP looses the house he will be reduced entirely to twitter rants and Executive orders however.

Again, Nope
he is on pace for about 200 (50 per year) in his term, he is currently at 85. Jimmy Carter was a 1 term president and he had 320 (80 per year) |

How dare you present facts in the political forum! The liberals will now have to change their argument.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Fair enough. You are correct.
The article I had seen was before that in 2017. I didn't go back to look because I don't really care.
