Well, that’s why it sounds rather lame to announce that making something already illegal is going to be made illegal by executive order.
It’s like saying he’s going to sign an EO to make it illegal to kill people.
BINGO!
He’s probably saying that to bring it to people’s attention. That it is happening. If he doesn’t executive order, it’ll be to remind whatever law enforcement that should be handling it to do it.
I suppose it could all happen behind the scenes but he’s trying to keep his promises front and center.
I love your Jeeves book!
