Hopefully but a stepping stone to eliminating or consolidating agencies.

The devil being in the details, of course.

New Executive Order Puts A Regulatory Watchdog In Each Federal Agency

So, Trump is going to add another layer of government to oversee the government?

That's how it's sounding like to me.

The goal should be to have fewer agencies.

This isn't something that should be done by Executive Order in any case.

Congress makes regulatory laws, an in so doing they generally authorize the affected agencies to issue regulations toward implementation.

It is up to Congress to constrain the agencies -- by, for example, requiring economic impact analyses, demonstrations that the regulations are required, and so on.

This EO is a lawsuit waiting to happen, and I'm pretty sure Trump would lose it.  Which would be a good thing, actually.

I don't know why these administrations keep making the same mistake of not asking me first.  I can save them a whole bunch of time and a whole bunch of money.

No, they are not actually necessary. 

See, that took me less than 5 minutes.
