I’m expecting an announcement that the White House has fired everyone in that DOJ office any minute now.

Related: The Right has screamed bloody murder for years about Obama’s tyrannical and unconstitutional executive orders, even though he issued fewer of them than any President since Grover Cleveland.

The new guy sure seems to be issuing a lot of executive orders, and he’s only been in office a week. Where’s the outcry about how the President is circumventing Congress now?

Trump: I make my own laws and overlook laws that I do not like. This is how business works in real life.
FOX: There are just too many regulations and laws in the books. Who can possibly remember them all?

OLC: Sir Trump has been given carte blanche to write whatever he wants. His tweets are also approved by us as executive orders.

Maybe legality isnt a concern because it has more to do with the optics that Trump is actually doing something in his first seven days and not that these proclamations are illegal or legal.

Up for an office pool on that?
I say the committee will be convened by mid summer, the senate to vote in the fall this year.

Indeed, but I would take Impeached/Resigned/Jailed, not simply Impeached. But he’ll never last 4 years.
