I also note that Fox News put out an opinion piece that did not agree with him. It pointed out that this is another in a long line of bad decisions by presidents along this line.
On the same front page was a link describing how Republicans should act in this new environment. I think they know full well there will be po-lenty of things done by this President that they, who voted for him and gave him a platform, don’t support.
Which flows into my last point: I think this flurry of executive orders shows that he knows he won’t be getting the support of even his own party on many issues in Congress.
