I hope not.

It can't and would be litigated.

I disagree. With an EO, Biden can eliminate fracking on federal lands, which is maybe 40-45% of all fracking. That will cost thousand of jobs and make us energy dependent again.

He likely won't tear down the wall, but he can open the borders with an EO, and/or with instructions to the Border Patrol.

He can ban AR-15s and AK-47s, or anything else, with an EO. Clinton did it, and the ban lasted 10 years. He can do the same with high cap mags.

He can have his exec branch add regulations to gun and ammo manufacturers that make both much more expensive, and likely run some out of business.

So he can't do everything on the list, but he can do some significant damage.

The 1994 AWB was passed in the house and senate, then sent to Clinton for signature. It wasn't enacted with an EO.

Ahh, my bad. You're right. Then they let it expire. But he can still over-reg gun and ammo manufacturers and drive prices way up.
