I don't know how to make this point sexy, but when you read Biden's EOs vs Trump's EOs the thing that strikes you most is the COMPETENCE.
Biden's EOs are written in the language of LAW, and STRUCTURE, and like BUREACRACY.
I just cannot emphasize how SHODDY Trump's legal work was. Like the straight legal writing CHOPS of his entire administration was SO BAD.

You'd get a Trump EO and the first 3 hours was just looking at thinking: "what, the hell, is this even SUPPOSED TO DO?"
Biden's EOs are like: "a thing to do this [law]" "which affects the following laws [law law law]" "and revokes the following provisions [law law law]" "in concert with the following [law law law]"

Like, THEY ARE WRITTEN BY PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING.
Nobody's gonna care. There aren't enough people who can *spot the difference* between competent rule-making and a chicken drawing a nightmare with a crayon. And the media won't give him "credit" for BASIC COMPTENCE.

But, ye Gods friends, this is what ORDERS should sound like.
