Let me explain something about this order : It superseded Executive Order 13490, put in place by OBAMA.
So Trump put in his own order, to supersede Obama's. Then he revoked his own EO.
It is a legal and clever way of undoing EO's. That is what this order is about.
Don't read into the order too much, as it was merely a carry over of Obama's, which is now revoked in whole and not part.
Trump's Revocation : https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-revocation-executive-order-13770/
Section 1. Revocation. Executive Order 13770 of January 28, 2017, “Ethics Commitments by Executive Branch Appointees,” is hereby revoked, effective at noon January 20, 2021. Employees and former employees subject to the commitments in Executive Order 13770 will not be subject to those commitments after noon January 20, 2021.
The original EO
which superseded Obama's 2009 EO.
This was a clever move to revoke Obama's EO.
