President-elect Donald Trump has already made President Obama irrelevant. He not only commands the media spotlight, as presidents-elect are wont to do, but in effect he governs from Trump Tower as he awaits the necessary formality of Inauguration Day. Whether it be convincing Carrier to keep its plant in Indiana or signalling a new day in Sino-American relations by talking to Taiwan’s president, the Trump era has already begun. And President Obama is not so much yesterday’s man as he is the president eagerly—and easily—forgotten.
*snip*
Obama’s signature—and only meaningful—legislative accomplishment is the government takeover of healthcare accomplished under the Affordable Care Act, known colloquially as Obamacare. Congress passed the bill without a single Republican vote through a constitutionally suspect use of a budget reconciliation procedure. And it very likely will be gone in the opening days of the Trump Administration, possibly on Inauguration Day itself.
Government-controlled healthcare has been a Leftist unicorn since the time of the New Deal. With Obama in the White House and Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid in control of Congress, they seized the opportunity. But Americans never supported the law and Democrats didn’t take the time to persuade them. “Take your medicine, it’s good for you,” was the prescription coming from the Democrat leadership.

“Everything about socialism is sham and affectation.” - Bastiat
I love that! (and still miss Sam)
I’m so gonna shove that in the faces of the snowflakes ;’}
and the number one fabrication by Obama... “l learned about that in the Press, like everyone else”
‘Waiting for the first MSM story on “homelessness”.’
There have already been several. I didn’t bookmark them, but my thought was that the MSM is getting a running start on the issue, in preparation for Trump.
EXCELLENT!
There’s no such thing as “Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.”
Also, Obama was never a “professor.”
Everything about Obama is fake.
He can’t produce identification, but there’s a picture on internet you can ask questions about. If you object then you’re a racist, or - gasp - a “birther”
If you use his full name you will be threatened with arrest.
He insisted upon a podium and an airplane with “Office of the President Elect” seals even though there is no such office.
Like a child with a toy he used electronic effects (reverb) when speaking at a podium.
We stopped passing budgets and instead had repeated continuing resolutions.
We stopped passing laws and instead had “Executive Actions”, often accompanied with with taunts and dares to defy him.
We stopped having sovereign borders and had Executive agencies disregard their sworn duty to protect our borders. Executive agencies gathered people in foreign lands, brought them here and secretly distributed them throughout the land, all in violation of law.
Congress fully funded and then some every single illicit program.
All of Congress, House and Senate, Democrat and Republican, supplicated and aided.
Drain the swamp. Drain the swamp and destroy politically the swamp creatures so they may never menace us again. Democrat and Republican alike. Bust the Uniparty club, McConnell, McCain, Pelosi, Graham, Ryan, Reid and their ilk. Destroy the subversives and ethnicists Becerra, Durbin, Menendez, Flake, Eillison and Gutierrez. Drain the swamp and prevent it from reforming: term limits and close Executive departments so the creatures no longer have chits to trade, for starters.
The entire Left Is fake.
They are all about feel-good academic theories...none grounded in reality.
