Barack Obama's Legacy

[TahoeHorn]

Obama's most significant legacy is Trump, just as GWB's most significant legacy was Obama. After eight years of anybody the public wants somebody without their weaknesses. For instance, after eight years of Obama the next guy would likely be somebody not easily rolled by Third World dictators. After eight years of GWB the public wanted somebody that didn't upset the Euros.

P.S. The voters will tell you at the polls what they think about that guy. They'll say "give me more" or "give me something else". They'll say "give me somebody like X, or anything but Y". The election is almost always a referendum on the incumbent, and the voters are describing his legacy.

Obama took down Bin Laden after Republicans let him go.

Once again the left attempts to re-write history. Bill Clinton literally let Osama Bin Laden go. President Bush hunted him relentlessly and implemented the policies that eventually led to his location.

And then Barack Insane Obama had to think about it 4 months. Because, you know, it was such a tough decision to kill the world’s most wanted terrorist.

I’m not sure there has ever been an American that was less respected around the world than Barack Insane Obama. Aside from progressive wing-nuts, there isn’t a person in the world that doesn’t have disgust for Obama.

Maybe could have gotten within light years of an American name?

Republicans might want to start thinking about Trump's heritage rather than about the "16th. best American president".

Well if things continue they way they are, he will unquestionably go down as the greatest president in U.S. history. He’s already had the best year and a half of any president in the modern era.

The problem Trump will have in the ratings is that the presidential ratings are done by the nation's best historians; add to that, they are grading on twenty presidential categories. Of course, that's assuming Trump is not impeached or resigns, but even so he will still be rated.

Could have been an incredible unifier
Took opposite route instead

Unquestionably the most divisive president in U.S. history.

Here is what you were actually saying when you made that post:

The problem Trump will have in the ratings is that the presidential ratings are done by the nation's best radical progressive historians

And you’re right - that will be a problem for President Trump. The butt-hurt left will never acknowledge his accomplishments. But America will.

What Trump accomplishment? Doubling this year's deficit to an estimated $1T+ for the first time in 7 years?

What, exactly? He was handed a growing economy and created less jobs his first 18 months than Obama's last 18 months.

Inflation is now at a 6-year high.

Gas is fucking ridiculous again.

He didn't raise taxes on people moving jobs overseas as he promised but CUT them.

I thought he would actually renegotiate NAFTA and a couple other things, but it's been disappointing to watch him merely preen and posture like a fucking peacock.

Trump's Iran Deal is to remove inspectors and stop monitoring Iran (that'll show 'em!).

He promised BIGLY investments in infrastructure, but not so much as a peep about that since he began his presidency.

Has reversed the banking rules that have been preventing big banks from fucking us again, which can't be good for us.

When he said he'd be so into the job he'd rarely ever take vacation, call me naive, but I kind of believed him. I didn't think he'd basically take 3-day weekends EVERY fucking weekend.

And now him and his circle-jerk of a 3rd-rate mobster crew are going to be so tied up in major legal cases that I don't think he's going to have any time to get anything done. A president basically has 2 years to get their biggest stuff done or rolling. In a few months we'll be there already and all I see is a man without a plan who doesn't know how to focus on anything for more than 2 minutes.

The Nobel Peace Prize Committee proves your point.


Guess which man was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize?



Adolph Hitler

Joseph Stalin

Benito Mussolini

Barack Obama

Good man. Good President. Easily a top 10 President. Given the opposition and the hand he was dealt, a truly remarkable Presidency.

Oh CC...what color is the sky in your fantasy world? Here in reality, the world universally recognizes Obama for being the worst president in U.S. history.

President Barack Obama is the worst president since World War II, 33% of American voters say in a Quinnipiac University National Poll released today. Another 28% pick President George W. Bush.

I love when left-wing propaganda fails. Technology has made it exponentially harder for the fascists to lie to the people like FDR and his cronies did for so long.

President Trump has an exponentially lower unemployment rate than Barack Insane Obama ever had. So you’re little statistic is there is pure bullshit. When unemployment is over 10% (as it was under Obama and the Dumbocrats), it’s easy to create lots of jobs. When unemployment is at 3.7% (as it is under President Trump) it becomes very difficult to create jobs. There is almost nothing left to create.

 

[P@triot]

Has reversed the banking rules that have been preventing big banks from fucking us again, which can't be good for us.

Yeah...uh...the banks never “fucked us”. As always, Dumbocrats did. Bill Clinton’s 1997 Community Re-Investment Act forced banks to make loans they wouldn’t previously make (because socialists believe everyone should own a home even if they can’t afford it). And then they doubled-down on the stupidity and incentivized risky loans by promising to back them with Freddie and Fannie.

He renegotiated multiple trade agreements with China to favor the U.S.

 

[P@triot]

In a few months we'll be there already and all I see is a man without a plan who doesn't know how to focus on anything for more than 2 minutes.

Well all that man has done is decrease the unemployment rate (including record lows for the African-American community), increase incomes for Americans, create record highs in the market, secure the border, make more progress with North Korea in two months than Dumbocrats have in 75 years, restore liberty to the people and restore power to the states. Not bad for a year and a half of work.

Just imagine what he could do in 8 years.

As I’ve said before; obama will eventually be known as the worst president we’ve ever had.
We’re just now starting to learn how bad he was.

Quinnipiac Presidential Poll

Voters agree with you....


"His presidency will end with Democrats in possession of 11 fewer Senate seats (depending on how you count), more than 60 fewer House seats, at least 14 fewer governorships and more than 900 fewer seats in state legislatures than when it began. That’s a staggering toll." http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/13/o...est&contentPlacement=1&pgtype=collection&_r=0

And....Obama right back at 'em...

“Former Obama Aide Is Sorry for Saying Obama Hates People

That happened on Tuesday when a quote by Neera Tanden, a former Obama aide and current president of the Center for American Progress, appearing in a story by John Heilemann in New York raised eyebrows:

"People say the reason Obama wouldn't call Clinton is because he doesn't like him. The truth is, Obama doesn't call anyone, and he's not close to almost anyone. It's stunning that he's in politics, because he really doesn't like people."

“…Tanden, who "served as senior advisor for health reform at the Department of Health and Human Services, advising Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and working on President Barack Obama’s health reform team in the White House to pass the bill," according to her bio at the Center for American Progress. She is currently president and CEO of the liberal organization.” Former Aide on Obama: 'Stunning that He’s in Politics, Because He Really Doesn’t Like People'

Here are 43 scandals from MaObama's EPA alone! How can one not laugh at the left's false narrative about the "scandal free" Obama Administration when it was unquestionably the most corrupt administration in U.S. history. In fact, you could probably add up the scandals of all presidents combined and MaObama would have more.
