As for the orders themselves, I can definitely say the Obamacare one is very good. Trump had only tried to wipe it out because he's always hated Obama for being a better speaker than him... but Trump never came up with a viable alternative and thus basically wasted four years of citizens' time, especially those who really needed the benefits from something like Obamacare. After four years of Trump vindictiveness, it was only natural that ol' Biden was going to pay him back with some of his own medicine.
It'll taper off, I believe... and Biden will go about the business of running the country and hopefully Trump will slink back into the woodwork.
There's nothing vindictive about any executive order Biden signed. Almost all of them are related to the pandemic including the one allowing people who've lost their jobs/healthcare to sign up for Obamacare coverage.
You really think Trump is going to go away quietly? Are you following the news?
Trump will only remain relevant as long as his cronies and fans make him relevant.
Also... if you want to argue about the "vindictiveness" of Biden's executive orders... go for it. All I know is if Trump hadn't been such a divisive, horse's ass of a President, Biden wouldn't have felt compelled to sign close to 50 Executive Orders in his first seven days.
But you're wrong about "almost all of them are related to the pandemic."
In the first seven days of Executive Orders and Memorandums with directives, more than half of them were not related to the pandemic (25-18, to be exact).
