Presidential rule by fiat is fine as long as a Republican does it.

Lmao at the outrage behind this. Trump could implement M4A and atlas would cry

The president doesn’t have unilateral power to do what he wants. Unless you’re ok with that, then Biden can issue the seizure of guns in a few months, ok?

I wouldn't be surprised if Biden did that and Atlas defended it and ignored it's legality. You guys pick and choose what to care about when presidents engage in executive action.

Democrats could've just agreed to the GOP plan and taken a small L but they always dig in their heels at the wrong time. At this point they just handed Trump an easy win and huge PR victory. Honestly they deserve to lose. It really is crazy how bad they are at this.

Wrong.  Some of us actually believe in the rule of law, regardless of who's in power.  Do you?

Doesn't matter, optics are all that matter and the optics will push Trump's approval up 5% minimum.

I guess this next week we will see who the media is really biased towards.

The only one of the three that seem any good is the student loan one.    The evictions and unemployment EO's seem like trash that won't really work.

The EO's won't make much difference, if any at all.

Amazing.  In one short response, you've managed to combine both arrogance and ignorance. 

You are in no position to know what I do or don't believe in.  I've been opposed to the increasing power of the Presidency for decades.  For a recent non-Trump example, I condemned Obama's overreach with his executive actions on immigration at the time they were issued.  Although I agreed with his goals, it was clearly a matter for the legislative branch.

Yes they will. Americans don't read fine print.

But they also easily forget things that don't tangibly affect them, and these Executive Orders aren't going to do anything soon enough for Americans to remember them come election day. These aren't even going to be on the media's radar while coronavirus deaths have climbed into exceeding 160,000, Biden's upcoming running mate announcement, and the conventions. Not to mention Trump's inability to resist saying and doing stupid s*** all the time.
