(Reuters) - In his first week in office, U.S. President Joe Biden has rolled out a wave of executive orders to fulfil a roster of campaign promises, underscoring just how easy it is to reverse some of the policies of his predecessor, Donald Trump.
As of Wednesday morning, Biden had cranked out some 40 executive orders, nearly half of them overturning Trump mandates. With one stroke of the pen, the United States rejoined the Paris climate accord and with another, Biden blocked funds for a border wall with Mexico.
