He has still made far fewer executive orders than Bush, Clinton or Reagan though...

I never said anything about the amount of executive orders he's done but rather it's the executive orders themselves and when he's using them that are the problems.

Without a doubt he has set a new president that if you are POTUS, you can just decree things you want as long as you have the support.  The thing is he is only doing this because he knows congress will never get anything done themselves.

 

If we fix our congressional system then presidents will be less likely to go this route.
