What to do with a President who toils against the will of the American people?
Approval ratings of Barack Obama's handling of immigration reached a low not long ago, reaching a 65% disapproval. Americans overwhelmingly oppose Obama's current threats of unilateral action on immigration and overwhelmingly prefer that Obama work with Congress.
The GOP is now poised to control both the House and the Senate come January, so why not wait a few months to try to work with the new Congress?
I think it's because he has no interest in cooperation. I think he wants to be impeached and there are two primary reasons. One, he doesn't give a rip what anyone other than Valerie Jarrett thinks and two, any impeachment effort will be immediately characterized as a lynching- a lynching of the first black President.
For his entire career Obama has been described as a "loner" and "aloof." despite his numerous policy failures he really does think he is the smartest man in the world. The only person to whom he listens is Valerie Jarrett, the Iranian slumlord.
The problem is, the truth is always the opposite of what he says. About the only honest thing Obama has ever said was his desire to fundamentally transform this country. As far as I am concerned he cemented it later by trying to walk it back. It is no different with immigration. He once said that he couldn't bypass Congress:
“And so what we need to do going forward is to address some of the broader problems in our immigration system. And that means changing minds and changing votes, one at a time. I know there are some folks who wish I could just bypass Congress. I can’t. But what I can do is sign a law. What you can do is champion a law. What we can do together is make comprehensive immigration reform the law of the land.”
Let's put that through Official Barack Obama Bull***t Decoder Ring and see what we get:
Defiant Obama: I will use my power
President Barack Obama on Friday defended his plans to use executive power to bypass Congress...
Americans don't want Obama to act alone. They don't want a rogue President.
Following the mid term election pounding, Obama said "I hear you." The useful idiots at WaPo put it this way:

This man must be adored, it is a trait of his multiple personality disorders. When he was on top he was able to maintain some control, now that he is not, he is extremely dangerous because he has lost control. He is attempting to regain the adoration, which is the same as food and water to him and will get it in any manner he can. He needs to be watched very closely.
Yeah, gravity sure did a number on her face.
Granted it had little else to hang on to...
Yes, I do believe he wants to be impeached.
He’d rather be remembered because he was impeached rather than not remembered at all.
I wonder if they try to impeach, how quickly he will start issuing pardons for thousands of his criminal scrunts.
Do it now and get it over with.
Or, perhaps a 3rd-grade understanding of the Constitution. Zero is President. No signature, no law without an override, and there ain't enough votes. Come on. Get real.
Barry has been over his head since day one. Being impeached is no big deal to him.
I’m sure the republicans can pass a budget bill that is to everyone’s liking except his right before the deadline.
“Or, perhaps a 3rd-grade understanding of the Constitution. Zero is President. No signature, no law without an override, and there ain’t enough votes. Come on. Get real.”
Simplicity. Bill #1. Seal the border. Go ahead and veto it.
I'm not a Democrat, but I can tell what they would say to a bill that would "seal the border". They would say, "Why are you such a raaaaaacist? Why do you want to separate families? Veto sustained. Next?"
“Why are you such a raaaaaacist? Why do you want to separate families? Veto sustained. Next?”
Go ahead and say that. And hold it over their heads for two years.
