BREAKING: Look What Obama Just Did While Everyone Was Focused On Russia From the beginning of his presidency, Barack Obama has been fighting rumors that he is planning to enact martial law. Now, just weeks before he leaves office, Obama has reportedly signed the National Defense Resources Preparedness Act, which can only be enacted during peacetime. Once the order is officially implemented, the entire economy will be under Obamas direction, and he will have the authority to issue regulations establishing nationwide procedures and standards of production. Truth Monitor also reports that he will control general distribution of any material (including applicable services) to the civilian market. The comes shortly after Obama reportedly told NPR that his strong preference has been to work with Congress and that he recommends Trump avoids using executive orders to get his way. This is the same man who just two years ago claimed he didnt need permission because, Ive got a pen and Ive got a phone. Now, Obama has the nerve to claim he bent over backwards to try and compromise with Congress. In my first two years, I wasnt relying on executive powers because I had big majorities in the Congress and we were able to get bills done, get bills passed, he commented. And even after we lost the majorities in Congress, I bent over backwards consistently to try to find compromise and aa legislative solution to some of the big problems that weve got. After that astonishing comment from a man who has enacted 260 executive orders, Obama offered some unsolicited advice to Trump. My suggestion to the president-elect is, you know, going through the legislative process is always better, in part because its harder to undo, he insisted. Were sure Obamas just trying to stop Trump from fulfilling his promises to clean up his mess by overturning many of his unilateral decisions. What do you think? Will Trump be a better president than Obama will ever be?
