US President-elect Donald Trump may reverse up to 70 percent of President Barack Obama’s executive orders, practically erasing the legacy of the first African-American head of state, Former House speaker Newt Gingrich told Fox.
Obama, who signed over 260 executive orders in his two terms in office, urged Trump, who will be inaugurated on January 20, not to circumvent Congress when trying to enact his agenda. Obama used his executive powers to push through labor, climate and immigration reforms after Congress refused to go along with his proposed programs.

Uh yeh we did genius. Its called the House and the Senate. That’s a super majority. There is nothing Obama did that should not be undone.
What the heck; just make it 99.999% and call it a day.
Obama is true-to-form to the very end. He has not matured one iota in eight years in the presidency. We had low expectations for a zero-accomplishment community organizer elevated to POTUS and he didn’t even meet those low expectations. Petulant child is exactly right! Only I don’t think he is “acting like” that — that IS him through and through.
70% is better than 0%...I guess the other 30% will be in February...
70% of Obama's legacy is 100% of his EO's.
Trump will work with congress on the remaining 30%.

Obama, “yes, we can.”
The Democrats would have to stop skimming union pension funds then. . .
I believe some of these that he signs actually continue EOs that have been in place by past _residents.
Obama's shiite stain on America is going to take some time to get rid of but Trump is starting on day one and that is good.
I just hope he has a rubber stamp instead of a pen. His fingers are going to be tired eliminating this muslim skidmark from our history.
He(the President) shall have the Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.
It is not abundantly clear (and backed up by multiple forgery experts) that Obama's certificate of live birth, that he himself presented to the government and the American people, is a forgery:
This fact completely verifies that Obama could not have been "president" by any legal or Constitutional means.
Therefore, the Bull Dyke Lesbian and the "Wise Latina" are ineligible to serve on the Supreme Court. They were not nominated by a President.
“not” = now
First you need to learn what super majority means...genius
“There is nothing Obama did that should not be undone”
And when you run into actual opposition, maybe you will then understand.
>
What about the remaining executive orders?
Are they of an innocuous nature?
>
Why just Zero’s? Have we not had enough despotism from the Exec. for quite some time??
He should write ONE that wipes out *ALL* prior EO....THEN start kicking Congress’ @ss to roll back govt.
“I was responding to your own apparent willingness to give a historically dominant Republican Congress with a historically firm backing of We the People a pass on wimping out before the next Congress even convenes.”
Uh AGAIN, we didn’t send a bunch of Trumps to congress. We sent the SAME people that were there before, including a bunch of RINOs and people openly opposed to Trump in the election.
Be all “ we the people” all you want, but some of these clowns are going to be working with the Democrats to slow some stiff down, and you had better be ready for some agenda items to take more than a week to get done.
“I’m not planning to lose. You apparently are making provisions to save face in case the going gets tough.”
“I’m not planning to lose. You apparently are making provisions to save face in case the going gets tough.”
So?
You aren’t an elected official. I’m dealing with the reality of the red tape of government that the left will use to slow things and stop them.
“I’m not willing to accept the Republican bull**!t we’ve had to endure the past 20 years. You apparently are already willing to use ready-made excuses.”
Like points of order, filibusters, RINOs not willing to support Trumps positions, organized Dem opposition, courts with Dem judges....you know, REALITY, and not the stuff you are inhaling where you thing EVERYTHING is going to get done in 100 days because you are full of piss and vinegar?
“May your chains set lightly on you..”
Jesus, the right and those retarded histrionics are the reason we don’t get anything done. Just a contest to see who can make the most dramatic statement.
I didn’t say this stuff wont or should not get done. I SAID IT WILL TAKE A MOMENT FOR SOME OF IT, AND SOME OF YOU HOTHEAD KEYBOARD LOUDMOUTH MICROMANAGERS NEED TO BE AWARE OF THIS AND GIVE TRUMP SOME ROOM.
Now is that too hard to understand?
Obama the sweaty failure.
Actually, from personal experience I will say that the Russian media nowadays is way better than US/UK. When they print their lies they do it in a slight tongue-in-cheek style that really is comical, which proves they have a sense of humor!
What was the middle part?
Ditto.
That is why I am disgusted with Republicans.
some are just the traditional ones done on holidays and such
