Did Senator Paul ever organize a rejection of ANY Executive order” issued by President Obama?
No?
Did Senator Paul ever read the Supreme Court’s 1983 Decision on The Emergency Declaration Law that CONFIRMED the President’s legal right to “declare national emergencies” and legal right to VETO Congressional resolutions passed to “nullify” those declarations?
NO?
Does Senator Paul think that the sailors who returned fire on the Japanese bombers at Pearl Harbor acted “illegally”, because our Congress had not yet exercised its “exclusive” Constitutional “right” to declare war on Japan?
Why not?

Jefferson quote is particularly suited on this occasion.
