Yes, Really.
Obama took Executive action to a heightened extent, because Congress 'just wasn't gonna give him the time of day'...brother had to do what he had to do.
Obama wasn't the first to grab Executive Power, and he won't be the last.
Hell, look at Trump.
He tried to pass a budget that did all sorts of things, and he couldn't get it past his OWN TOTAL CONTROL OF GOVERNMENT.
Think about that, Trump controlled all levers of Government, and his own party shot his first two Budgets down.
So now Trump is going ballistic, 'cause he's a man-child that's losing his mind when he can't get his way.
Obama was more measured, but he did the same thing: Executive Action when your Government simply won't work with you.
Why do you blame Obama for the same actions Trump is doing?
The power has shifted toward the Executive...Congress has ceded much of its Constitutional powers to the President...it's a mess.
Trump is the worst sort of person to capitalize on this sad state of affairs.
Founding Fathers are rolling in their graves.
(Also, they don't understand cellphones and television, or satellites, or quantum physics, or the Apollo Mission to Luna, or Sushi...)
