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.

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.

But Obama’s Pravda Media will run to him at every turn in the next four years. To them, his opinion will be the only important one during Trump’s tenure.......and they will be making themselves further irrelevant. The masses have moved on from Obama already. We are looking to the future, when America will again be prosperous and a leader in the World. Leading from behind has passed into the history books, as a complete failure.
Well it wasn't a unicorn. It is a white elephant, a gift of a troublesome thing by a monarch to ruin a subject by the cost of its maintenance.
Let ‘em. After MAGA they will be like the old geezers in the corner jabbering about how great life was back when they were kids. People relate to here-and-now, not has-beens like Obama will soon be.
*bump*
Couple the planned failure of Obamacare with the election of Trump, the ploy of tbe next step of single payer to be foisted on the USA is dead.
Well, considering he is not a natural born citizen and was never eligible to BE President, it would be good if we could erase as much of the damage as possible.
We MUST make sure something like the Kenayanesian Usurpation NEVER happens again.
Born here of citizen parents
NATURALLY a US citizen because there is no possibility of being anything else
One is not NATURALLY a US citizen when one CAN be something else
No foreign birth
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)
No divided loyalties
BO’B is now singing a song from the ‘folks’ who cling to their Bibles and guns...
Gloom, despair, and agony on me
Deep, dark depression, excessive misery
If it weren’t for bad luck, I’d have no luck at all
Gloom, despair, and agony on me.
When he at last finds his voice, he is welcome to sing along with his minions in the MFM
After what this country has experienced, first hand, it will NEVER be too early for a President Trump.
Out with the bad, in with the good.
Good Bye and good riddance to this fake....
Propped up by the Media, and removed by the American Public with the repudiation of his surrogate Hilly.....
Freedom sure feels good
Waiting for the first MSM story on “homelessness”.
There is one other Obama-legacy that we are all missing — the doubling of the national debt under his administration. Ordinarily deficit spending would give the economy a significant bounce, but this idiot couldn’t even get that positive from all that wasted money.
O’Mugabe managed to waste $8Trillion dollars and deplete the military. How is that even possible? This is WWII level of spending adjusted for inflation.
BTTT
I try never to use the words President and obama in the same sentence.

Doesn’t President Trump sound great. We no longer sound and act like a third world country.
President Obama what a sick joke.
2017 is going to be a great year, the end of a massive error.
Obama is going to make millions going on talk shows and fake and or snowflake news dissing Team Trump.
The only option the msm has is to keep asking why does Trump keep avoiding them? What is he hiding? He’s bff with putin don’t you know?
Only the dumbest of the dumb won’t see through it.
