Even the Liberal author, Andrew Sullivan, who loved Obama and absurdly still thinks that Obama was great for race relations, now sees that the current racial politics of the radical Left is destined to divide the USA into warring factions, where there can be no truce or compromise.

Btw, I checked the "Copyright" posting list and I didn't see anything about "New York Magazine," so I excerpted to 300 words, just to be safe.

Obama and Co. were anti white racists

The “Unity” and “post racial” nonsense were just ploys to get naive, guilt ridden whites to fall for his communist bigotry

In economic policy, Obama’s slow winnowing of the deficit even in times of sluggish growth has been completely reversed. We too easily forget that the biggest accomplishment of Trump’s term in office so far — a massive increase in debt in a time of robust economic growth — is the inverse of Obama’s studied sense of fiscal responsibility.

The Obama presidency could easily be describes as the “Seinfeld Presidency”.

The Obama presidential library will be “Obama’s ‘Seinfeld’ Presidential Liebrary”.

‘Legasy’ as a concept is a neutral thing.

Hitler, Stalin Mao also had ‘Legasies’ which have taken decades and blood to destroy/counter by people who want freedom.

But then those kinds of legacies are worshiped by leftists.

Same goes for ‘change’ and Obama’s destructive leftist ‘changes’ are rejected and being undone.

I’m confused (not difficult)

Obama’s Legacy is being revealed.

He was and will always be, an American hating Kenyan twink coke head with a smoking habit.

Trump isn’t destroying Obama’s legacy, he’s just defining it.

Couldn’t get very far into that. Too many lies.

“In one respect, it seems to me, the presidency of Donald Trump has been remarkably successful. In 17 months, he has effectively erased Barack Obama’s two-term legacy.

I don’t want to say or face this. I still want to believe my colleague, Jonathan Chait, whose thesis is that the changes Obama made in his difficult but tenacious eight years in office are too great to reverse. And there are a couple of shifts that do indeed seem to be as permanent as anything is in politics: marriage equality and legal cannabis. But neither, one recalls, was a signature goal of Obama. He began as an alleged opponent of marriage equality, even though, of course, he was bullshitting. He wouldn’t touch the marijuana issue in his entire term and even at one point dismissed it as trivial. As for the rest, in specific policy terms, Trump and the Republican Congress have succeeded in undoing Obama’s work to an extent I barely anticipated.”

(snip)

“If Trump has destroyed Obama’s substantive legacy at home and abroad, the left has gutted Obama’s post-racial cultural vision. And those of us who saw him as an integrative bridge to the future, who still cling to the bare bones of a gradually more inclusive liberal order, find ourselves on a fast-eroding peninsula, as cultural and political climate change erases the very environment we once called hope.”

Schadenfreud-a-licious!
