Trump's First Year vs. Obama's Eight Years

Here are President Obama’s main accomplishments over eight years:

--Obamacare: This 2,000-plus page law with more than 10,000 pages of regulations and over 20 new taxes has not increased life expectancy but has taken away freedom of choice on what type of insurance everyone has to buy with greatly increased costs and deductibles.

--The Iran Deal: This took the country which is a top sponsor of terrorism and lifted its regime up with more power and money. It did not make the world or the U.S safer and stronger.

--The Paris Climate Accord: This transferred a massive amount of money and power from the U.S. private sector to its government and in turn transferred money from the U.S. to other countries. The policy is based on the belief that climate change/global warming exists and is the greatest threat to the world. So does Iran sponsor terrorists because of climate change? Does North Korea build nuclear weapons because of climate change? Does Russia take over more territory because of climate change? Do refugees from Syria and other countries escape because of climate change? CO2 is a clear, innocuous, non-polluting gas that allows plants to thrive and the billions of people to be fed. The reason Obama and other people want to regulate it is to have government control. But this accord certainly did not have its goal to make the U.S. stronger.

---- Regulatory avalanche: Obama added tens of thousands of regulations and burdens to businesses and individuals as fast as he could. This certainly helped empower and enrich the D.C. suburbs but not the rest of us.

I honestly can’t think of any policies that Obama passed or implemented that had the effect to help the U.S. economy and the people as a whole.

In a couple of years Obama will only be an answer to a Trivial Pursuit question.

Obama, “The Last Black President”

[bagster]

I didn't read the whole article. Did it mention Osucka's adding over ten trillion dollars to the national debt?

That was a pretty big accomplishment.

[DaveA37]

I can think of other ways to be rid of him and any “memory” of him altogether.

Don't be so sure....Obamacare hasn't been gutted or fully repealed.

SCOTUS appointees and other judges by him will/still remain on the bench.

He enabled BLM to gain traction and become a movement.

[sipow]

Amen to that brother.

Trumps achievements inside 11 months (!) are unprecedented In the history of the Republic and show just how badly short changed we have been by the corrupt and lazy elites who have ran things for decades .

Trump has told one big lie though and it needs to be addressed - he said we would win so much we would get tired of winning.

Wel, Mr President, you were wrong ! I am not tired of winning at all !

Cuba’s dictatorship gets a wink and a nod from Obama

Israel gets stabbed in the back as Obama tried to unseat Netanyahu

Congress is partially to blame for this since they failed to pass a budget for 8 years, allowing the almost trillion dollar stimulus to roll over via base line budgeting ? Where did all that money go? I don’t see new highways, bridges, hospitals.

[bagster]

Congress is partially to blame

Oh, I know. I just like to blame the President like the lefties do. I decided a long time ago to fight dirty like they do.

Also, President High Yella woulda' vetoed any decent budget submitted to him by congress. I'm sure of that.

[Drew68]

That was a pretty big accomplishment.

Don't forget "Cash for Clunkers".

[bagster]

Haha. Oh yea. Now that’s what I call thinking outside the box. Kudos to the beta male or lesbian who came up with that brilliant idea in the meeting.

Yes, it did.

[Jumper]

First black president to engineer a overhaul of a major political party into a crime syndicate eventually dismantled by RICO.

Amen
