They aren't the all powerful documents he thinks they are. If he's working on them, he's got less time to make trouble, pass real laws (which EOs are NOT) and really fuck up our democracy.


Executive orders are only binding on the federal government's executive branch....
Presidential executive orders, once issued, remain in force until they are canceled, revoked, adjudicated unlawful, or expire on their terms. At any time, the president may revoke, modify or make exceptions from any executive order, whether the order was made by the current president or a predecessor. Typically, a new president reviews in-force executive orders in the first few weeks in office.
