Also why would it not be legal through executive order? Couldnt he just cite eminent domain and compensate the lenders?
He absolutely can't forgive loans through an executive order; Congress would have to do that. From the article, though, it sounds like Congress already did make a program that would allow veterans to have their student loans forgiven but that few took advantage of it. The executive order is supposedly going to make it easier for them to actually utilize the existing program.

Which is good, but it's hard for me to give him props here when his Department of Education made it almost impossible to use a similar program that aimed to forgive loans of teachers:
