That is not the solution. In business yes, but for the president the answer is still NO.

Presidents should be eliminated for writing executive orders. It should be a constitutional amendment if necessary. Everything the president wishes to order is either under the responsibility of the legislature or is already within the President's scope of responsibilities.



Every president has used executive orders.

However congress shouldn't have left something so important as tariffs up for modification by executive order.


No, the executive order was an invention of Lincoln to bypass congress to expand war powers.



While it might be easy to refute that article does not refute what I said. The only evidence to the contrary found in that article is an executive order from the 1830s that was repealed two years later, which doesn’t make a strong case of disagreement.


The article doesn't say what they were but George Washington issued eight.
