    Looks like someone wasn’t taught about separation of powers…

    Executive orders only control the executive branch/manage the federal government, and certain other things the president has control over (like elaborating on an already-in-place law), they can’t make or pass laws. Executive orders that overreach can be found invalid and blocked. The president can’t just use laws as a suggestion.
