What a "rigorous" inspection system where Iran specifies what can and can't be inspected and at what timesWas that the regime where they could take weeks to allow a specific site to be inspected and no inspections at military bases? Rigorous? DURR.
How’d Obama create 9 million jobs? Be specific.President Obama created 8.9 million jobs by the end of December 2016, a 6.2% increase. There were 152.3 million people employed at the end of his term. That's compared to 143.4 million working at the end of the Bush administration.Name one Obama accomplishment.Obama's legacy is another Trump failure.

Obama’s Top 50 Accomplishments, Revisited | Washington Monthly
Obama’s Top 50 Accomplishments, Revisited
The comprehensive legacy of the 44th President.
by Paul Glastris and Nancy LeTourneauMAGAZINE
Pete Souza/Official White House
In March 2012, we compiled a list of what were, at the time, President Barack Obama’s greatest achievements, to accompany our cover story, “The Incomplete Greatness of Barack Obama.” Today, at the end of his second term, Obama’s legacy is far more complete. Indeed, items from the original list—such as increasing national service opportunities, creating the Race to the Top education reform program, and expanding stem cell research—fell off in order to make room for new ones.
But his legacy is also under threat. Donald Trump and the new Republican-dominated Congress have pledged to undo much of what the president has achieved, including repealing the Affordable Care Act and reversing important executive actions on immigration and climate change. So it is with this caveat that we offer the following updated list of Obama’s top accomplishments.
1. Passed Health Care Reform
After five presidents over the course of a century failed to create universal health insurance, signed the Affordable Care Act in 2010. More than twenty million Americans have gained coverage since the passage of the law, which provides subsidies for Americans to buy coverage, expands Medicaid eligibility, and prohibits insurers from denying coverage to people with preexisting conditions. The uninsured rate has dropped from 16 percent in 2010 to 9 percent in 2015. The law also mandates free preventive care, allows young people to stay on their parents’ policies up to age twenty-six, and imposes a ban on annual and lifetime caps on benefits.
2. Rescued the Economy
Signed the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in 2009 to spur economic growth amid the most severe downturn since the Great Depression. As of October 2016, the economy had added 15.5 million new jobs since early 2010 and set a record with seventy-three straight months of private-sector job growth. The unemployment rate, which hit a sustained peak of about 10 percent in 2009, has dropped to 4.6 percent as of November 2016.
3. Passed Wall Street Reform
Signed the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act in 2010 to re-regulate the financial sector after its practices caused the Great Recession. The law tightens capital requirements on large banks and other financial institutions, allows the government to take them into receivership if they pose a threat to the economy, and limits their ability to trade with customers’ money for their own profit. Dodd-Frank also created the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to crack down on abusive lending and financial services. By the end of fiscal year 2016, the CFPB had handled nearly one million consumer complaints and taken actions that resulted in $11.7 billion in relief for more than twenty-seven million consumers.
4. Negotiated a Deal to Block A Nuclear Iran
Led six nations in reaching an agreement with Iran that requires the country to end its nuclear weapons program and submit to a rigorous International Atomic Energy Agency inspections regime in exchange for lifting global sanctions. The deal—which resulted from first toughening sanctions against Iran—also blocked Iran’s pathways to building a bomb, slowing down the development time for a weapon from three months to one year if Iran were to break its commitments. ...
2. Rescued the Economy
LOL!
The recession ended in June 2009. His "stimulus" package wasn't able to impact the economy enough by June to make the difference between depression and recovery.
And then his endless attacks and mountains of new regulations gave us the weakest recovery since WWII.
4. Negotiated a Deal to Block A Nuclear Iran
LOL!
submit to a rigorous International Atomic Energy Agency inspections regime
Was that the regime where they could take weeks to allow a specific site to be inspected and no inspections at military bases? Rigorous? DURR.
U.N. NUCLEAR AGENCY REJECTS TRUMP, SIDES WITH IRAN ON U.S. REQUEST FOR MILITARY INSPECTIONS
Nuclear inspections only relevant at places where nuclear activity occurs.
Nuclear inspections only relevant at places where nuclear activity occurs.
Colored fella, born in Kenya, right?Obama publicly humiliated Donald Trump and Trump has not recovered from the humilation: "Setmayer points to the 2011 White House Correspondents’ Association dinner, where Trump sat stony-faced and humiliated as Obama lampooned the Celebrity Apprentice host’s nascent political ambitions. Obama even pointed to a photoshopped image of a Trump White House with hotel, casino, golf course and gold columns."
It is very evident that Donald Trump is envious of Obama and has set out to destroy as much of Obama's legislation and executive orders as he can.
This is Trump's big weakness. People can rile and antagonize Donald Trump into a state of apoplexy by praising Obama and comparing Trump's performance and poll numbers negatively to Obama. The economic effect of the Covid19 pandemic has created huge opportunities for antagonizing Donald Trump.
Donald Trump could be provoked into a frenzied campaign of online rants and rages by a deliberate campaign by Democrats to provoke him and deflect him from doing anything other than just raging at Obama and the media.
'It eats him alive inside': Trump's latest attack shows endless obsession with Obama
'It eats him alive inside': Trump's latest attack shows endless obsession with Obama
The president seems more interested in blaming his predecessor than tackling the coronavirus – so what’s driving Trump’s fixation?

Published Sat 16 May 2020
President Barack Obama and President-elect Donald Trump once sat together in the Oval Office. “I was immediately struck by Trump’s body language,” wrote journalist Jon Karl in his memoir Front Row at The Trump Show. “I was seeing a side of him I had never seen. He seemed, believe it or not, humbled.”
It was November 2016 and, just for once, Trump was not in charge of the room, Karl recalls. Obama was still president, directing the action and setting the tone. His successor “seemed a little dazed” and “a little freaked out”. What the two men discussed in their meeting that day, only they know.
But what became clear in the next three and a half years is that Obama remains something of an obsession for Trump; the subject of a political and personal inferiority complex.
Observers point to a mix of anti-intellectualism, racism, vengeance and primitive envy over everything from Obama’s Nobel peace prize to the scale of his inauguration crowd and social media following.
Ben Rhodes, a former Obama national security aide, tweeted this week: “Trump’s fact-free fixation on Obama dating back to birtherism is so absurd and stupid that it would be comic if it wasn’t so tragic.” ...
Arguing with you liberals is a waste of time. You approve of everything Obama did during ObamaGate.Still, no definition of Obamagate. Let's be honest here, Trump wouldn't know the particulars unless one of his tweeters, texters, or somebody from Fox or OAN gave him those talking points.

Are you forgetting something? In reality it was your boi Trump incompetence keep attacking Obama. Blame Obama for his failures in handling this crisis.Presidents don't usually engage in a stand up comic routine attacking civilian business people or celebrity game show hosts. It seems that Barry Hussein had a premonition and became obsessed with Trump before he ran for president. Maybe that accounts for Obama's deep state attempt at a political coup.

Obsession is Obama trying to character murder President Trump before his inauguration through this very day.
