I find it hard to believe any President can issue an order that another President can’t undo.

My understanding is that an executive order can be withdrawn in say, a hundred days but after that it’s law and takes an act of congress to undo. Not sure what the exact limit is.

“I find it hard to believe any President can issue an order that another President can’t undo.”

No doubt dozens of leftist advocacy groups will fight every Trump executive order reversing an Obama order in federal court. Obama has appointed 1/3 of the federal judiciary, with the aid of Republicans in the Senate, and these activist judges will delight in striking down Trump or at least tying him up in legal procedures.
