President Donald Trump signed an executive order Monday requiring that federal agencies identify two regulations for repeal for every single proposed new regulation.
I was told there’d be no math.

b. A significant feature that is obscured, misrepresented, or not readily evident; a catch: This deal seems too good to be true. What’s the gimmick?

This is fun!
Let’s say you want to regulate Monosodium phosphate.

The stupidest possible thing done at the stupidest possible time in the stupidest possible way, carefully calculated to appeal to the stupidity of the stupidest people in the base while simultaneously giving an appeasing salad toss to the increasingly nervous oligarchs. So, just another day under the Trump Regime.
Meanwhile, the Dow is down 182 points as I write.

Is any other branch of government going to get to do anything? Looks like Trumpski and his nazi puppeteer are doing all the work. Poor guys. It must be exhausting.

That word accurately describes Tramp’s entire foray into politics. May I also suggest ‘jingoism’ to characterize this administration:
jin·go·ism
ˈjiNGɡōˌizəm/
n.
derogatory
extreme patriotism, especially in the form of aggressive or warlike foreign policy.
synonyms: extreme patriotism, chauvinism, extreme nationalism, xenophobia, flag-waving…
example: MAGA (I added that)
