I never thought I’d thank OVomit for anything. Never say never!
This may be true, but it is not the whole story. Trump won because he had a vision for America. The genius of his MAGA campaign was that the future of our beloved Country will mirror our great past!
“Obama’s decision to wring his hands and take no action until after the election, when he imposed minor sanctions on individual Russians, might explain his team’s efforts to pin the collusion tag on Trump. Those charges, made mostly by anonymous leaks, are catnip to the Democratic media and distract attention from Obama’s failure to respond to what has been described as a Russian act of war”
Obama’s Russian rhetoric was as overheated as his retaliation was weak. The Republican response to alleged Russian hacking attempts needs to avoid the overheated rhetoric part. “Act of War” demands a strong diplomatic response backed by threat of military action — to do less makes you look as weak as Obama.
Besides, the US has a record of election interference (Obama in Israeli elections for example). Anybody in the Media accept the fact that Obama committed an Act of War against Israel? I thought not.
Pendulum swing. Not always even, but big or small there is always some movement in the opposite direction.
Obama would not have been elected twice if it weren’t for his race and the race politics of the left. So two terms of a horrible president begats a good one with conservative values. The so called conservative republicans in congress don’t want it. They’re happy being the overpaid loyal opposition and they love the smell of fetid swamp water.
Interesting. Now the shoe is on the other foot. The people know the country was wrecked the last 8 years, but ya can’t blame Obama for it, that would be raciss’, so the rest of the democrat party gets to take the fall.
Obama’s legacy = President Trump!
“Liberalism?”....more like communism/marxism
Trump is responsible for the Trump victory. The author could have made exactly the same argument in 2012 if the Republicans had nominated a better candidate and won the election.
Mr Trump won because he said we would build a southern wall. Let’s get started on it already.
And now comes Barack Obama. .. is joining the fight against the repeal of ObamaCare. He called the Senate bill an example of “meanness,” and pledged to campaign for the Democrat in the Virginia governor’s race
and then he skipped town for a vacation.
I think the single biggest factor is that the dems just didn’t run a black man again. All you have to do is look at the minority turnout for Obama vs. Clinton and look at the margin of victory for Trump in the states he flipped. I don’t buy that Obama’s liberalism was too much for minorities or that it caused some massive turnout for general voters for Trump. Turnout was less than in 2008 and 2012.

Trump is a product of the opposite of every major player since Kennedy. He can’t be threatened, he can’t be controlled unless his own people do it, and he doesn’t care about political correctness unless it’s within a deal he wants to make. In other words, he doesn’t care what people think that are not on his wagon. And that’s what scares hell out of them.
So the only way they “think” they can control him is with the destruction of public opinion. And the only way to do that is to blatantly lie. And that they are doing in droves. (With nothing proven but a lot thrown in)
My only question is, “When are the conservatives going to say to hell with it, either put up or shut up?” It’s past time.

This all goes back to Bush 41, the RINO.
He abandoned what Reagan handed him and when Perot got into the 1992 Race we ended up with Bill Clinton.
The rest just snowballed from there.
Imagine a world with no Bush’s and no Clinton’s, it’s easy if you try.
