Obama signed fewer executive orders than any President since Grover Cleveland.

Our current officeholder is catching up, in his one (only?) term.

Ok, if it's not a matter of quantity, surely it's indisputable that Obama normalized the idea that if Congress "fails to act" it's completely fair game to break the rules and legislate from the oval office.

Maybe off by a president or two - Bush started breaking the rules by making all his judicial appointments between sessions as 'emergencies' to avoid Congressional oversight.

No one is innocent here, it’s just you find people who were vocal in the past just seem weirdly quiet when the administration changes.

Just that some invented the crimes, and then exercised them egregiously. And there's a pattern to that.
