It will just make it easier for the next (Democratic)
president to clean up the grotesque stain
It has smeared upon our once Great Republic

Although, they will twist themslves in knots to say the cases are different.

(5,269 posts)will nod sagely, and as currently constituted, many Democrats will feel obliged to stand on the side of our separation of powers -- never mind what is happening now -- and it will be a big problem in trying to clean up the mess he or she inherits.
Again, just saying...

(4,203 posts)Constantly flip flopping, potentially from the head to the janitors, will neuter these agencies and render them virtually powerless. Not only that take the federal science oriented agencies. They will be kneecapped by this. If every change of leadership gets to hack these agencies to death, what the hell can they get done? This is the desired effect IMO, it is written in Projekt 2025 and it is a wet dream come true for repukes because they hate these agencies and have been trying to effectively dismantle them for 80 years IMHO.

Republicans will oppose every revoked Trump EO with litigation and challenge every EO by the next Democratic president stalling the effort to repair the damage done by Trump.

This is NOT government. This is OPPRESSION. Laws and normal behavior will be ridden over by the Panzers of the Reich Wing. They already do this. When did the Epstein Act get enforced? When somebody tells you who they are, believe it.
And right now, the Reich Wing has the guns. And the badges.
We have to stop thinking this is baseball when it's undeclared war not subject to Geneva.
This is not a game of political innings. This is raw id-like power.
