Your questions have a means to prove a point. I've asked you 50 times what your point is?

The answer to your question is that Republicans will be fine with exec orders as long as DJT does them. They are hypocrites.
 
we are on pace in one year to have the 6th most executive orders in history. in one year. he will be just short of FDR in total amount and it took FDR 12+ years to get his number if he continues his pace through his 4 year term

He campaigned on these and is fulfilling his promises. He won an election based of it. I'm happy he isn't backing down like most presidents do when they win.

He won the election because he had a big (R) next to his name when the big (L) was a horrible candidate.

He doesn't have carte blanche to do as he pleases based off that logic alone.

He won the election based on these sensible stances he took on key issues of immigration / Islamic terorism/and middle class jobs.

He is acting on that and I'm glad we have a president who isn't breaking his promises to the American people.

What was so bad about Gary Johnson? Trump wouldnt have got half the votes Gary Johnson did if Trump ran on a third party ticket.

I'll give him that. He's delivering on the worst parts of his campaign platform. That's very comforting for the conservatives who compromised in the hopes that he would choose sensible conservatives for his cabinet and they would govern.

Mostly, conservatives elected him because (1) ACA (2) tax cuts and (3) pro-life

I don't think it was exhaustive enough. From what I understand it's more designed at countries who don't have state records in order to facilitate proper vetting. In that sense it makes sense but I would have done a blanket temporary ban from all of these areas.

I don't think the below isnaccurate. This was a very odd election that I think opened the doorway for more than a two party sytem. I think a large portion of his vote came from his stances against immigration and Islamic terrorism. Admitingly Obama care played a large role as well.

Doesn't change my opinion because it's using a range of statistics before the world was destablized from the last 16 years of awful foreign policy.
 
I havent followed the Syrian situation that much because I care more about domestic issues but wouldnt the Syrian civil war be over a long time ago if we were not supporting the rebels? Assad is the leader of Syria, we have no right to give support to rebels to overthrow him. We wouldnt tolerate Syria arming rebels in the US who want to overthrownl the government. I am sure Assad is a dick but so was Sadaam. I sure wish we had Sadaam around now to stabalize Iraq.

why go the executive order route?

why the silence from the republican congress that is the majority after saying only a tyrant goes that route?

if you want to pass this while you control every branch of gov't, let it be debated like they have preached for years now

but i won't hold my breath for you etc to actually have a spine for what you have bitched about for years
