This madness is not an executive order but rather a clause passed in legislation back in 1953. I do not think Trump could reverse it without a court battle, which I am sure was Obama’s intent.

The article said Bush shortened a ban once... Maybe Trump can just shorten Obama's ban to five minutes.

Speaking of five minutes... I read that Congress will adjourn for only five minutes at the end of this session (at 11:55 am on January 4th) to stop Obama from a 1 year recess appt of a supreme court justice. Anyone want to take bets on what happens in the white house in those five minutes before noon on January 4th?

Grrrr - I hope you are wrong. Obama is obviously not going quietly into the night. He’s breaking all the china and everything he can get his grubby hands on to hurt our country.

The decree could be reversed with a simple act of Congress repealing the 1953 statute in its entirety. No need for judges and other questionable officials.
