One of Obama's greatest failings ...


...was his executive overreach. I don't think there's any question about that. I'd be willing to bet that every president has stretched their powers a bit more than their predecessor, but Obama was exceptional in that regard.

Now we have a Republican administration that, rather than championing a return to prior norms has dived head first into the deep end of ends justifying means. So if it makes you feel better to scream about how evil Democrats don't care when their representatives attack democracy that's fine, but you should consider avoiding mirrors.
