President Trump’s Executive Orders: A Quick Look Into What’s Happened So Far

by Mark Angelides

Executive orders are seen by many new Presidents as a way of getting things done quickly. Obama signed 275 of them, GW signed 290 and Bill Clinton signed 363. Just two months into his Presidency, Donald Trump has (to date) signed off 27 executive orders so far, the success of many have yet to be determined. Here’s a rundown of all EO up to the 13th of March:

  1. Thank You judge jerkoff of Hawaii, under the precedent upon which your entire rejection of PRESIDENT Trump’s E.O. is based, Ruth Ginsberg is disqualified from sitting in on any appeal by the President. Ginsberg ran her wrinkled old trap during the campaign and established her BIAS and PREJUDICE against anything Trump. Either words SHE as an established justice said during the campaign weigh as much as Trumps as a candidate , or your whole “ruling” is the CRAP you and it smells like. The court is thus not locked 4 to 4, and I have to wonder how many other judges ran their traps.
