Analysis based on 8 articles · First reported Jan 20, 2025 · Last updated Jan 20, 2025
The anticipated use of executive orders by Donald Trump could lead to significant policy shifts in the United States, affecting industries such as energy and technology, and potentially creating uncertainty for companies like ByteDance — TikTok Shop. The ability of the United States and the United States — Supreme Court of the United States to block these orders introduces a layer of checks and balances, influencing the ultimate market impact.
Donald Trump is expected to use executive orders to immediately overhaul the United States government upon his return to the White House. Executive orders allow a president to wield power without direct action from the United States, though there are limits to their authority. Donald Trump has forecasted signing numerous executive orders covering various policy areas, including deportations, the U.S.-Mexico border, domestic energy, federal worker rules, school gender policies, and vaccine mandates. He has also promised an executive order to extend the sale period for ByteDance — TikTok Shop and asked Jeff Van Drew to draft an order to halt offshore windmill development. Historically, presidents like Joe Biden have used executive orders for major policies, such as artificial intelligence regulations. However, the United States can block executive orders by removing funding or creating other hurdles, as demonstrated by the revocation of an order by George H. W. Bush in 1992. The United States — Supreme Court of the United States can also intervene if a president exceeds legal authorities, as seen when Harry S. Truman attempted to seize steel mills.
