White House trade adviser Peter Navarro on Sunday defended President Donald Trump's decision to use executive orders to provide relief to people impacted economically by the coronavirus pandemic, arguing his hand had been forced by congressional inaction.
"The Lord and the Founding Fathers created executive orders because of partisan bickering and divided government. That's what we have here," Navarro said on NBC News' "Meet the Press."
On Saturday, Trump signed four executive orders intended to help Americans struggling financially during the pandemic. The orders approve an additional $400 in weekly unemployment benefits, suspend payments on some student loans, protect some Americans from eviction and allow employers to defer payroll taxes.
Navarro's divine attribution for the origin of executive orders was mocked by many on social media.

Navarro must be talking about Beelzebub AKA The Lord of the Flies.
