ANY competent President could have done tons of stuff with that power. The only thing I remember him passing is the 2T tax cut that wasn't fully funded by cuts or increased revenue. Interesting that the Hillary investigation was closed under Trump in 2019 with the DOJ stating "no persuasive evidence of systemic, deliberate mishandling of classified information". No crime.
