I don't know about evil, but he is a true believer who will act on those beliefs They cheered in Indiana, when The Donald tapped him as his VP. Smart money amongst his own party was against his reelection.

It's interesting that Obama was leaving office very popular yet it didn't mean anything in any of the election races. Who was administering that poll?

Thank you for that. That was certainly an eye opener. I guess I was laboring under some misinformation I was given in the past.

But it points out that Trump is rushing to do things without going through the process of securing legislation and therefore avoiding the system of checks and balances provided by the Constitution.

I'm not a huge fan of EOs . One of the reasons is because they are easily reversed . This EO about funding NGOs that provide abortions over seas as an example has been reversed with every new President since Reagan. Most of them violate the clear intent on the framers .
