Yep, they would (and have) block Trump's EO's in a heartbeat. They'll approve the rescinding of anything he does as soon as a Demonrat takes power. This only works in one direction. Rule of law is dead.
Because Trump did not attempt to replace Obama's executive action, he attempted to, rightfully in my mind, have Obama's executive action declared illegal. Trump could, right now, issue an E.O. ending DACA, but he has not because he is using it, or will attempt to use it, as a bargaining chip in "comprehensive" immigration reform.
How the eff can an EO not be overturned? WTF has happened to this country?
The SCOTUS literally just ruled that the president is allowed to create new laws via memo.
And that future presidents are not allowed to rescind those memos.
It's time for Trump to get out his pen and his phone.

King Obama
Damn straight

Comprehensive = everyone gtfo. We're done compromising.
Bolsheviks happened. People decided they'd rather let Bolsheviks take over than be called names.
