Second, it wasn't about Obama using executive orders, it was about using them badly. Most of Trumps executive orders have been to reverse the EO's that Obama made that didn't make any sense to him. You know, some of those stupid regulations that hurt our economy?

According to the
Seattle Times there were multiple Obama cabinet nominees including the head of the EPA and Labor Secretary that were blocked and filibustered by the Republicans. Also included in that was the Commerce Secretary. That story also talks about how the Republicans used mountains of paperwork and other tactics to delay some of Obama's nominations.
Oddly, I don't recall you criticizing them for this.
