Undated: What is the difference between an executive order issued by
the President and a law?
There are three main
types of law in US federal governance; The Constitution, statute law, and rules
and regulations. Executive orders are a specific kind of rules from that last
category.
The Constitution is the highest law, which
means that laws from the other categories cannot contradict the Constitution or
they will be declared null and void. It takes a 2/3rds majority in both houses
of the US Congress, a signature from the President, and consent from 3/4ths of
the state legislatures to amend the Constitution.
Executive orders are a kind of rules-and-regulations law authored by the
President and binding only on employees of the US federal executive (about four
million people). These orders cannot defy the Constitution or statute law, and
usually detail how the President intends for government to implement
congressionally-authored programs. [info has not been vetted by this

June 29: In covering a story, a media outlet
is not finding guilt. It is simply reporting the news that [for example] a
lawsuit has been filed against Mr. Trump, and ideally putting the complaint in
context. Unproven allegations are just that - unproven, and should be identified
that way. ... Proof comes later, at trial. But the November election will
come well before any trial. And while Mr. Trump is presumed innocent, we are
permitted — no, we are obligated — to analyze [a] case’s viability ....

directive from the President that has much of the same power as a federal law
... [however] “The President’s power to see that the laws are faithfully
executed refutes the idea that he is to be a lawmaker,” Justice Hugo Black said
in [a] majority opinion.

May 11: While conservatives did challenge
many of former President
Barack Obama’s policies on immigration and healthcare, experts say
the sheer number of lawsuits Trump is facing — and the success they are having
so far — is what’s unprecedented. ... Some experts say the pace of litigation
against the administration is the result of Trump’s heavy
use of executive orders. ... “The Democratic Party and their constituents have
decided their byword is going to be ‘resist,’ ” he [John Malcolm, director of
the Heritage Foundation’s Edwin Meese III Center for Legal and Judicial Studies]
said. “No matter what the president proposes, they will do everything they can
to thwart him, including resorting to the courts.”

Trump was a vociferous critic of then-President Barack Obama's use of executive
orders ... "Obama goes around signing executive orders," Trump said in February

April 11: Trump’s Executive Order On
‘Welfare’ Doesn’t Do Anything — At Least Not Yet ... The order is more about
messaging than policy in the short term.
President
Donald Trump signed an
executive order
on Tuesday that ostensibly cracks down on loafing among welfare recipients.
The order itself will have
no immediate effect on any program or benefit. Like
many other executive orders
before, all it
does is direct agencies to review their policies and eventually make
suggestions.
