U.S. Presidents who have ruled by decree

The worst offenders were FDR (pictured above), who signed over 3,700 Executive Orders or EOs (see link below), including the infamous Japanese internment order; Woodrow Wilson (1,803 EOs); and Calvin Coolidge (1,203 EOs). By way of comparison, Donald Trump has signed 40 EOs thus far into his second term (see here).
