I love it. Dems dying in the traps they set themselves:
Executive Orders;
The "nuclear option";
... keep subverting the Constituation, Libs... maybe that will help you appreciate the wisdom of the Founding Fathers rather than labeling them 'racists'.
Next thing Trump needs to do is appoint unconstitutional 'Czars' like Obozo did.

WASHINGTON — While the White House has condemned Donald Trump’s call for a ban on Muslim immigrants as “disqualifying” and “toxic,” President Barack Obama may have only himself to blame if a President Trump ever succeeds in putting his plan, or some version of it, into action.
In his efforts to work around Congress, Obama has made the aggressive use of executive power, particularly on immigration, an increasingly effective and politically accepted presidential tool. While legal scholars are divided on whether Obama has accelerated or merely continued a drift of power toward the executive branch, there’s little debate that he’s paved a path for his successor.
liberal tolerance of obama's EO makes trump scary
For the past eight years, liberals and Democrats have been in control of the Executive Branch under President Obama. While the Republicans in Congress were able to act on their constitutional authority of implementing checks and balances (much to the dismay of those on the Left), Obama was able to bypass several of these measures by utilizing his much beloved “executive orders,” and in essence, entirely bypassing the checks and balances set up by the Framers of the Constitution.
These actions, done under a Democratic president, were heralded by those on the Left.
But, much like a pendulum, what swings to the Left will inevitably swing to the Right.
And here we are.
