- In an interview with NBC's "Meet the Press" on Sunday , White House trade adviser Peter Navarro criticized congressional Democrats for debates over new coronavirus aid.
- One day after President Donald Trump signed four executive orders to bypass gridlock in Congress, Navarro told NBC that the "Lord and Founding Fathers created executive orders because of partisan bickering and divided government."
- Navarro also claimed there is a "theory that the Democrats would prefer to see the economy go into the tank for another 90 days because that harms the president."
- Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on Sunday criticized President Donald Trump's new executive orders, noting that the orders push states to cover relief expenses even as they're already experiencing a shortage of funding.
- "It doesn't help when Speaker Pelosi goes out every day with her scarves flying and just beats the heck out of us for being cruel people," Navarro said.
- When host Chuck Todd asked where Trump was during negotiations for coronavirus relief bills, Navarro insisted "this is the hardest-working president in history."
- Trump signed the executive orders on Saturday at his New Jersey golf club to provide new actions for federal unemployment, student loan relief, a payroll tax cut, and evictions .

Who is this fossilized old fuck?
Ah! The story of Peter Navarro...
Way back when the Donald was setting up his White House team, he figured he'd need an economist, and a China expert. So he called in Jared and told him to get it done!
"Economics?? China?? ... What the fuck? I'm a New York slum lord... What do I know about those things?"
Somebody suggested an Internet search. Google not being mercantile enough, Jared went to Amazon. He found a guy named Peter Navarro .
Navarro must have done well in his job-interview, because he was hired as "China trade advisor" and, remarkably in that team, has not been fired.
Navarro's books often cite an expert named Ron Vara. Think anagram...
"When host Chuck Todd asked where Trump was during negotiations for coronavirus relief bills, Navarro insisted "this is the hardest-working president in history."
This makes me want to punch this guy right in the nose.
this is the hardest-working president in history
Yes, hard at work destroying American lives and American democracy... when he's not hard at work on his golf swing...
Fundies say the darndest things. Wrong things...
God created Executive Orders????
She just told me that's news to her
To simplify it for those on the left, "Trump has a cell phone and pen."; just like Obama. Not one peep out of the left about Obama's abusive EOs/EAs, and departmental adjustments.
The Truth as spoken by Navarro will set them free...
What truth?
President Obama never went around it like tRump is doing. One person called it 'unconstitutional slop'
But, but Obama
So you are saying all Obama's EOs are perfectly cool?
See if you believe in the divine right of Kings - you have to invoke God before you try to rationalize the outrageous behavior of the King.
Unless you're Henry VIII who thought he was God
I wonder if trmp is a reincarnation of Good King Harry?
Class? Can anyone tell us what happened in Paris, France in 1789?
Bueller? Bueller?
It's not the same.
We have plenty of cake.
My significant other simply will not let me have any.
It was decreed that the rich were too tall?
It was decreed that the rich were too tall?
Easy solution for that problem...
Rather than cake it seems to be rent/mortgage.
You and Adam are too clever
She should have thrown in sprinkles. That might have helped
What the founders woudl have to say about this...
