Biden’s been working hard signing things he hasn’t read. He has signed more executive orders in January than either Obama or Bush II did in any year of their presidencies. Here are dozens of Executive Actions, ranging from an anti-Asian hate crime guidance for the attorney general (in case you are a wrong thinker who refers to covid as the “China/Wuhan virus”) to setting up a Health Equity Task Force to figure out how to give primarily Democrat-voting minorities more money than you because “covid”. You know it’s getting out of hand when even the NYT agrees he should lay off the executive orders!
Now would be a fine time to reflect on Joe’s thoughts on personal integrity and democracy regarding executive actions. This is was the Oct’20 ABC Town Hall interview just before the election.
“I have this strange notion. We are a democracy,”
“Some of my Republican friends, and some of my Democratic friends occasionally say ‘well if you can’t get the votes, by executive order you’re going to do something’”.
“You can’t do it by executive order, unless you’re a dictator”
“We’re a democracy, we need consensus.”
A dictator in his own words.
