1
00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:02,760
Speaker 1: Last week. Obama sat down with an NPR host. His

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:05,000
Speaker 1: accident review was aired this past Monday, and he had

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,160
Speaker 1: some remarkable advice for Trump to avoid using executive orders.

4
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,600
Speaker 1: Obama says he really preferred to work with Congress to

5
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:15,000
Speaker 1: get legislation passed. He claims to have been over backwards

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: to find compromise with the Republicans after he lost Democrat

7
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: majorities in the House and Senate, but on big issues

8
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:25,760
Speaker 1: like immigration, nose dastardly Republicans they wouldn't cooperate, so he

9
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: was forced to use executive orders. Well that's fake news, folks,

10
00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:32,920
Speaker 1: that's fake history. Obama did have a Democrat majority for

11
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:36,199
Speaker 1: his first two years. Republicans were powerless. They couldn't have

12
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: stopped him no matter what he wanted to do if

13
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:41,319
Speaker 1: it was immigration. But Obama's priority was not immigration, then

14
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 1: it was Obamacare. He and the Democrats shoved it down

15
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:48,520
Speaker 1: our throats without a single Republican vote. That was why

16
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 1: the Democrats lost control of the House and Senate after

17
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,720
Speaker 1: the twenty ten mid term loss. With Republicans in charge

18
00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 1: of Congress, Obama never bent over backwards to work with him.

19
00:00:58,360 --> 00:01:00,920
Speaker 1: He told him to stop listening to me. He told

20
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: him he had a pen on the phone, that he'd

21
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: use executive orders to bypass him, and he did just that.

22
00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:10,360
Speaker 1: He consistently ignored constitutional limits on his executive power, and

23
00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,240
Speaker 1: the Republicans rarely found the spine and the challenging. And

24
00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:16,800
Speaker 1: Obama was counting on hill Are to keep his executive

25
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,959
Speaker 1: orders in place. Well now he can't because she lost.

26
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 1: So he's going to count on himself trying to stop

27
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 1: Trump from unraveling his agenda. You ain't seen nothing yet.

28
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 1: Keep a sharp eye. I will be
