I agree. A LOT can and will be dismantled through the executive branch, hopefully in a way that it cannot easily be rebuilt or ressurected.

Your statement has no bearing to reality, the only thing the executive branch can implement is an executive order, which is not law. If team donkey retakes power, they just negate these executive orders, and the beat goes on. Laws must be passed and established to offer any permanent solutions. Rule by fiat is what has gotten us into this current quagmire. Mr. Obama set the precedent, all I need is the stroke of a pen or some such nonsense is what he said. Since than it's been congress grifting off wars, global warming, and whatever else they can monetize. As presidents come and go ruling by decree to give there base read meat. Maybe this time will be different, I have my serious doubts.

EXAMPLE: (18 USC 3052) of 1934 said “...Agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation may carry weapons...”

The law says it is something the President decides. So the President on day 1 can announce the FBI is an investigative body only and they have 78 days to sell all firearms and ammo to FFL's all over the country and give them 2 years to pay back the purchase.
