0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Last week. Obama sat down with an NPR host. His

0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:05.000
<v Speaker 1>accident review was aired this past Monday, and he had

0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>some remarkable advice for Trump to avoid using executive orders.

0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:11.600
<v Speaker 1>Obama says he really preferred to work with Congress to

0:00:11.640 --> 0:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>get legislation passed. He claims to have been over backwards

0:00:15.000 --> 0:00:18.360
<v Speaker 1>to find compromise with the Republicans after he lost Democrat

0:00:18.440 --> 0:00:21.200
<v Speaker 1>majorities in the House and Senate, but on big issues

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:25.760
<v Speaker 1>like immigration, nose dastardly Republicans they wouldn't cooperate, so he

0:00:25.840 --> 0:00:29.920
<v Speaker 1>was forced to use executive orders. Well that's fake news, folks,

0:00:29.960 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 1>that's fake history. Obama did have a Democrat majority for

0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:36.199
<v Speaker 1>his first two years. Republicans were powerless. They couldn't have

0:00:36.240 --> 0:00:38.159
<v Speaker 1>stopped him no matter what he wanted to do if

0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:41.319
<v Speaker 1>it was immigration. But Obama's priority was not immigration, then

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.120
<v Speaker 1>it was Obamacare. He and the Democrats shoved it down

0:00:44.240 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 1>our throats without a single Republican vote. That was why

0:00:48.560 --> 0:00:51.720
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats lost control of the House and Senate after

0:00:51.760 --> 0:00:54.720
<v Speaker 1>the twenty ten mid term loss. With Republicans in charge

0:00:54.720 --> 0:00:58.160
<v Speaker 1>of Congress, Obama never bent over backwards to work with him.

0:00:58.360 --> 0:01:00.920
<v Speaker 1>He told him to stop listening to me. He told

0:01:00.960 --> 0:01:02.520
<v Speaker 1>him he had a pen on the phone, that he'd

0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:05.800
<v Speaker 1>use executive orders to bypass him, and he did just that.

0:01:06.200 --> 0:01:10.360
<v Speaker 1>He consistently ignored constitutional limits on his executive power, and

0:01:10.440 --> 0:01:14.240
<v Speaker 1>the Republicans rarely found the spine and the challenging. And

0:01:14.319 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 1>Obama was counting on hill Are to keep his executive

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:19.959
<v Speaker 1>orders in place. Well now he can't because she lost.

0:01:20.000 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>So he's going to count on himself trying to stop

0:01:23.400 --> 0:01:27.280
<v Speaker 1>Trump from unraveling his agenda. You ain't seen nothing yet.

0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>Keep a sharp eye. I will be
