Re: U.S. politics thread and Donald Trump - Putin's Cock-holster of U.S. Presidents

I find it weird that a US President can write these Executive Orders, and things happen within days, as opposed to going through a process of debate and voting with the Senate. It's almost like a dictatorship or tyranny, ( unreasonable, or arbitrary use of power or control) which the gun nuts there ...
