No matter what, the future is here, and President Trump is one by one by scratching those Obama executive orders.
At this pace, President Obama's résumé will be a total blank under "accomplishments." It will simply say he was inaugurated in 2009, was re-elected in 2012 and left office in 2017. There will be very little in between because he did so much by executive order rather than laws passed by Congress. "The 'Blank' Presidency" may be the title of a future book about this time in office.

Most of those unconstitutional orders were based on state powers which corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification federal career lawmakers wrongly let lawless Obama get away with stealing from the states.
Consider that Congress let Obama get away with doing all this illegal stuff because Obama was doing all the dirty, unconstitutional work that Congress wanted to do.
But by letting Obama do Congress’s dirty work for it with executive orders, career lawmakers were able to keep their voting records clean.
And by keeping their voting records clean, lawmakers were able to fool low-information citizens, citizens who have probably never been taught about the fed’s constitutionally limited powers, into reelecting them.
Are we having fun yet? =^O
Next, consider that although Pres. Trump is accomplishing a LOT as president, it remains that since the uniparty Congress wants to get rid of him, Trump not willing to do Congress's dirty work for it like Obama did, that Trump's first two years in office are arguably for practice. That being said ...
Drain the swamp sewer! Drain the sewer!
Remember in November 2018 !
Patriots need to make sure that there are plenty of state sovereignty-respecting, Trump-supporting patriot candidates on the primary ballots and pink-slip career lawmakers by sending patriot candidate lawmakers to DC on election day 2018.
Patriots need to qualify candidates by asking them why the Founding States made the Constitution’s Section 8 of Article I; to limit (cripple) the federal government’s powers.
Patriots also need to make sure that candidates are knowledgeable of the Supreme Court's clarifications of the federal government’s limited powers listed here.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Also, unlike career members of Congress who wrongly remained silent while misguided state officials abridged the constitutionally enumerated rights of citizens during the lawless Obama Administration, patriots need to make sure that candidates on the 2018 primary ballots commit to the following.
Candidates need to commit to making and enforcing 14th Amendment-related laws to prosecute misguided state officials who use state powers to abridge constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment-protected religious expression and free speech for example, such actions prohibited by Section 1 of the 14th Amendment.
”14th Amendment, Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
Again, drain the sewer! Drain the sewer!
” “The ‘Blank’ Presidency” may be the title of a future book about this time in office.”
The author is kidding himself.
There will be books in the coming years being published about Obama depicting him as the greatest president ever to sit in The Oval Office.

Where’s my money and free tuition???
Well, they weren't all necessarily unConstitutional, but very likely all were destructive.
And I'm sure most of us remember Clinton's EO placing a national park off limits to benefit Lippo Group, one of his slimy benefactors. Another one that really always frosted my @$$ was the one where he mandated that every Federal employee who carried a gun had to lock it up at home. Talk about kissing Sarah Brady's @$$ with his mouth open.
Much easier than hiding behind the Courts as they have for all of my life.
A movie has already been made about this imposter. The TITLE is “BLANKMAN”

Though the ‘super hero’ is far from actual fact, the comedy/parody is more on target.
I agree 100%.

The land set aside by Clinton was Escalante in Utah.
Very good point.
And speaking of hiding behind the courts ...
First note that the post-17th Amendment ratification, state sovereignty-ignoring Senate not only helps the likewise corrupt House to pass unconstitutional bills, bills that not only steal state powers but also state revenues uniquely associated with those powers, state revenues stolen by means of unconstitutional federal taxes.
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States."—Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
After the Senate helps the House to pass unconstitutional bills, lawless presidents signing such bills, the courts come into the picture.
More specifically, the Senate confirms state sovereignty-ignoring justices to the Supreme Court, activist justices who wrongly declare the unconstitutional laws that the Senate helped the House pass to be constitutional, Obamacare a great example.
In fact, activist Supreme Court justices wrongly ignore that previous generations of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified the fed’s constitutionally limited powers with respect to things like national healthcare as follows.
"State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]." —Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
"The smart crooks long ago figured out that getting themselves elected to federal office to make unconstitutional tax laws to fill their pockets is a much easier way to make a living than robbing banks." —me
"Federal career lawmakers probably laugh all the way to the bank to deposit bribes for putting loopholes for the rich and corporations in tax appropriations laws, Congress actually not having the express constitutional authority to make most laws where domestic policy is concerned. Such laws are based on stolen state powers and uniquely associated stolen state revenues." —me
