In another sweeping move aimed at undoing the perceived damage done by the Obama administration, President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order on Tuesday directing the Department of Justice to revoke all sixteen Thanksgiving Day turkey pardons issued by the former president during his eight years in office.
After reviewing the decisions made by the previous administration, President Trump has determined that a number of turkey pardons issued by Barack Obama were done so in a manner that was both deceitful and hazardous to the American people, White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer announced on Tuesday. This morning, the president once again used his executive powers to see to it that justice is served and that the surviving creatures will be destroyed.
Spicer said very little is known about the true origins of the sixteen turkeys or why they were specifically singled out by former President Barack Obama. There are a lot of obvious questions we just dont have the answers to. Were they connected to radical Islamic terrorism? Black Lives Matter extremists? We cant be sure, he said. All we know is they were sentenced to death and Obama took it upon himself to meddle in the independent judicial process.

Sounds just like them, doesn't it.

Satire was so much easier with Obama as president. I didn't need to think about it even for a split second I just knew it wasn't real.
The only thing that would truly surprise me with Trump would be if he suddenly started being a decent human being and truly caring about others, our environments, human and civil rights, etc and working to make things better for veterans, seniors, disabled and the poor and middle class instead of for himself and his rich cronies.

(51,129 posts)Trump's only "accomplishment" so far is undoing stuff, is his war on Obama's legacy.
Trump is going down in history as the most evil person ever elected to high office in America.
