With each bold deal, Trump erodes Obama’s legacy

Progressive critics of President Donald Trump might have felt better about the release of the three U.S. citizens held hostage by North Korea if the president sent over a planeload of cash.

That’s the way their hero Barack Obama used to do it when he was president. He was the easiest mark in town as he sleepwalked though eight years of his presidency.

If Obama wasn’t paying off terrorists for Americans held hostage, the way he did with the Iranians, he was swapping highvalue Islamic terrorists with the Taliban for a U.S. Army deserter

I believe Obama’s legacy has already been completely destroyed. The last nail to be yanked was the Iran deal.

The Kenyanesian Usurper should have NO legacy.

In fact he should never have been allowed to usurp the office.

Barack Obama is NOT a natural born citizen.

BOTH parties colluded to violate the Constitution.

The billions of dollars to Iran is still going to take some undoing. Meanwhile Europe wants to investigate Israel for defending itself.

Not enough yet!

When Obama, Kerry, Clinton and the rest of the “gang” stop agitating against Trump’s America, then I will know they are kaput. Till then, they do their best to foment strife and discord.
Their names must be (are) synonymous with failure.

The crucial remaining piece is reversing the political corruption of key government institutions, including the CIA, FBI, State Department, Justice Department, and IRS. That isn’t going to be easy.

What legacy? Damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. The country must never forget just how bad the kenyan imposter was/is.

In case someone was in a coma between 2006 and 2016...

WORST EVER!

SEPT 2016-— officials from the State, Justice and Treasury departments said the $1.3 billion to Iran was paid in cash on Jan. 22 and Feb. 5. The money came from a little-known fund administered by the Treasury Department for settling litigation claims. The so-called Judgment Fund is taxpayer money Congress has permanently approved in the event it’s needed, allowing the president to bypass direct congressional approval to make a settlement. The U.S. previously paid out $278 million in Iran-related claims by using the fund in 1991.

<><> Republicans have decried the payments as ransom, a charge the Obama administration has rejected.....a group of Republican senators announced their support for legislation that would bar payments from the Judgment Fund to Iran until Tehran pays the nearly $55.6 billion that U.S. courts have judged that it owes to American victims of Iranian terrorism.<><>


The US Treasury from the Obama era HAS a huge Obama paper trail. One can get awfully rich awfully fast knowing the Fed’s Treasury moves in advance.But the Iran connection could prove to be even more interesting considering the hundreds of millions Obama secretly gave to Iran.

RHAM EMANUEL’S TWO KEY JOBS Soon as they occupied the WH, Obama placed his COS Rahm Emanuel in control of the US Dept of the Treasury (oversees the IRS). PAUSE TO REFLECT First-term Obama had tight control of Treasury; Obama calculatedly placed his then-COS Rahm Emanuel in a dual role.......in the WH and at Treasury. Obama had a stranglehold on Treasury via COS Rahm Emanuel’s dual role


THE SMOKING GUN-—WSJ REPORT—On Jan 20, 2009 Timothy Geithner was appointed Obama’s Secy of the Treasury. But within three weeks, the Obama White House tightened its grip on Treasury. Obama put his COS, Rahm Emanuel, in charge of Treasury-—Rahm Emanuel’s dual role was an unusual move.

When he got to Treasury, WH COS Rahm Emanuel was so involved in the inner workings that the phrase “Rahm wants it” had become an unofficial mantra among subservient govt staffers, prostrate in obeisance, scurrying to accede to Rahm’s wishes, according to Treasury government officials. Reported by WSJ / 05/31/09

Pres Trump needs to suggest AG Sessions make an inquiry to the US Dept of the Treasury and be sure to ask what RAHM AND Obama were doing in the US Treasury after Obama got elected.

Obama’s legacy of oppression, hate and divisiveness needs to be rolled back. His legacy today is getting Palestinians killed in Gaza.

Diamond and Silk response to the question of Trump tearing down Obama’s legacy, “As for Obama’s legacy, he doesn’t have a leg to stand on”. Boom! Next question.

Love those ladies!

H.J.Ansari Zarif, the deputy for parliamentary and Iranian affairs within Iran’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
said he would expose “everyone who allegedly accepted bribes” to facilitate Obama’s nuke deal with Iran.
“... we will reveal which western politicians received monies during nuclear negotiations to make #IranDeal happen,” Mr. Zarif reportedly said.

Aha....the plot thickens.

This also explains why Obama blithely handed over billions of tax dollars to Iran.
Looks like Obama and his crowd got filthy rich on this deal.

In case you wondered how the Halfrican intended to pay for his billion dollar final resting place dedicated to the Sun God-——”Obama’s Presidential Center.”

NOTE: Obama said no federal funds will be used......just tax dollars with an Iranian postmark.
