And yeah, $15 is still too low. 4 years is still too long. But there are still 18M people who make less than $10 an hour and increase the wealth of people at the poverty line by like $20B. Not gonna complain too much on this one.

    You would need a fresh law to reverse it, which is true of any law. They could make the min wage $25 starting today and the next administration could make it $5.

    The next President can't cancel it through executive order

      This is true, but there's a difference between cancelling a scheduled increase and actually cutting real people's wages after they've really been raised.

      Both would be politically toxic but the second one much more so. Honestly though, I don't think either is likely.
