You're ignorance is showing.  You must have failed the Civics class in high
school.

All Trump can do is sign an Executive Order.  An EO only has the power to
direct a gov't agency to do something.  Those gov't agencies are officially
under the Executive Branch - so he **is** the boss.

An EO cannot "overturn legislation".  Ex: Trump can't eliminate the useless
Dept. of Education since Congress created it.  But since the Dept. of Education
is a gov't agency, he does have the power to defund it and get rid of people
with in it.

It takes a lot of work to undo the total mess that the Elitists have created
over the last few decades.

And if he had an "obedient majority" why was the gov't shut down for over a
month?
