I remember when Republicans completely lost their shit because Obama was signing EOs. They screeched that he was ruling like a king. Now look at them. Supporting the coronation of Trump while saying absolutely nothing about the EOs he is signing.

Move fast and break things
Edit: we can all agree that things are being broken and at least some of the things broken probably shouldn’t have been, and yet I’m still downvoted en masse? Stay classy

Your data source starts with 1937. FDR was inaugurated March 4, 1933, and signed 99 executive orders between then and June 12, 1933. I’d just leave the FDR line out, or use another source for his first term.

Is it a crime for a president to not read what he is signing? Because that is what is happening, but only so he can defer blame.

FDR signed 99 EOs in his first term. So by historical presidents Donald Trump isn’t that crazy.

The GOP has to “legislate” somehow. Lord knows they can’t actually legislate

Unless it’s an alternate spelling I’m not aware of, the word is “unprecedented”.

He’s min maxing the system with zero care for consequences.

It’s so sad that Presidents have been pointing at each other as an excuse to sign more and more executive order.
I wish we didn’t have such a celebrity culture around the Presidents

FDR signed a total of 3,721 EOs while in office.

Too late to bitch about it now. If you didn’t bitch during Biden & Obama, you’re just backing your tribe & not discussing it objectively.

But how many of Biden’s EOs were just reversals of Trumps? (flipping the light switch back off, if you will)

The crazy part is they have they have both house and senate, and the courts packed, and these aren’t executive orders like “amending succession of labor department” executive orders.
These are orders to imprison all non citizens, and then revoking birth right citizenship level executive orders. And that’s just like 2 of them.

Remember all the republicans tears when Biden tried to help student loan recipients with an EO.
Such hypocrisy

I’d be outraged if the democrats hadn’t done everything they could to undo everything Trump did in his first term, then completely ruined the country for four years.

Wow, even the second term curve is like, “My heart goes out to you”. 😅 j/k

Didn’t Obama sign the most? Just not in his first 100 days.

Because he is a weak bitch
Even the line looks like a seig heil
A man with a plan…or a project if you prefer
Looks like he is trying to beat Biden.
