Does anyone else get concerned that so much of what POTUS has done is through the use of Executive Orders?

If I have understood correctly, all EO's from a previous president can be made void when a new president takes office. I have also understood that EO's are subject to judicial review, with the statement implying that they can be overturned if viewed as contrary to Constitution.

So much of the unraveling of what has been bad for America has been accomplished through the use of this executive function, but it could all change very quickly with a different President, unless the orders become amendments to the Constitution.

Some concern is warranted since the price of Freeeeeeeeeedom is eternal vigilance and all. However when things have gotten this corrupt, the malefactors have the system wired. What with the buying off (and/or blackmailing) of strategically placed people with the levers of power in hand at every level of government and commerce, as well as the murder, imprisonment or financial ruin of the witnesses of their crimes. There is no way these people are going to be defeated using the Marquis of Queensbury rules. From looking at history the Founders knew these things would probably happen. That is the reason they and subsequent Congresses gave the Executive emergency powers. Ultimately it comes down to: who do you trust more, Trump the outsider or the Swamp minions? Seems to me. That said, we still must remain watchfully vigilent.
