Answer: (B)
'Ill behooves' means not suitable or fitting. In this case, it is not apt for the president to overturn or repeal the very policies that helped his/her predecessor.
(A) is the opposite of the blank.
(B) means to repeal, overturn. Thus it is the answer.
(C) means to publicly declare.
(D) does not match the context.
(E) is the opposite of the blank.
