Thing is it is going to look really bad for any future president to undo this.

How are the libs going to spin this? Maybe these politicians will actually have to work for a living. Term limits next.

You have to use an EO to undo a previous EO.

Fully support! I love so many of the things he's done so far and many of them like this has broad support with the public. If he would simply start hiding his crazy better he would be able to build a really big base of support over the next 4 years.

It will never be repealed.

The optics are just too shitty.

Breaking news: Trump's new policy leads to skyrocketing unemployment in the political class. Sad!

i can make an argument why this is bad. it's kind of scary to completely limit the economic value of a former public servant

that's some authoritarian shite

now i know the counter is: well they knew what they signed up for, BUT that only applies to anyone who was employed in this capacity after the EO
