Yes, CNN, Trump Is Reversing Obama’s “Legacy”. That’s Why He Won.
DB Daily Update ^ | 10.15.2017 | David Blackmon

Posted on 10/15/2017 5:13:19 AM PDT by EyesOfTX

And what a success this effort to erase the Obama legacy from our midst has been thus far. With the reversal of literally thousands of terrible, economy-killing regulations and dozens of patently illegal executive orders, Trump’s administration has demonstrated that the Obama “legacy” was almost entirely built on a foundation of matchsticks that would go up in flames with the election of any president who actually cares about the country.

While the fake news media has done its best to ignore it, President Trump’s reversals of Obama’s failed legacy have also extended to the War on Terror, and the destruction of ISIS in Syria and Iraq, which is largely complete. Literally thousands of ISIS fighters in Syria and Iraq have surrendered over the past few weeks with barely a mention on the nightly newscasts, and ISIS is on the verge of defeat in the key strongholds of Raqqa and Mayadeen, leaving Boukamal as the terror group’s lone remaining harbor.

Thus, just 9 months into his presidency, Trump’s military leaders have, working with Syria and others, almost wiped out the terrorist group that Obama fooled around with and allowed to grow throughout his second term in office. Chris Cilizza is no doubt horrified by this as well.

But out here in Flyover Country, us Normals are pretty happy to see ISIS being wiped out, the stock market setting records almost every day, the economy booming, our manufacturing industries investing tens of billions of dollars in new plants and equipment, and even about having a President who is willing to refer to Christmas as “Christmas.”

Chris Cilizza and the rest of the Obama-worshippers at CNN will never understand it, but all of this is exactly why Donald Trump is our President today.

We've been saying for a long time that it will take years to reverse the damage done to our country and the rule of law.

The economy is thriving even though the prediction was that the market would bottom out if Trump was elected.

President Trump got two pipelines moving.

There are prototypes of walls being built on the US/Mexican border as I write.

We've signed off on TPP.

We've signed off on Iran.

We've signed off on Unesco.

We've cut the EPA budget by 30%....with more to go.

We're slowly fixing the "immigration problem"...border jumping has dropped 70%.

The Supreme Court has ruled Security First on Trump's immigration restrictions.

China is turning the screws on North Korea...finally.

Sanctuary Cities have been informed that they will lose in the end.

Little Kim with his bowl haircut is stunned that the US might/would/could move on him.

Trump has said transgenders in the military.

Trump has done a magnificent job dealing with the hurricanes and it's time for Puerto Ricans to get off their butts and help each other.

Melania has provided us with the grace and beauty and goodness of Joan of Arc.

Bless the Trump family and thank you for your sacrifices.

Aside from his many lawless acts and increasing the national debt,the only legacy he has is the demise of the democrat party on his watch.

Correction....Trump has said NO transgenders in the military but we’re awaiting his final order.

I love how the media and dems say he has done nothing but are mad at all he has done. Trump is using executive order effectively to force both dens and republicans to work on passing laws. I love the I will decertify the deal with the Iranians unless the legislature starts to define what is living up to the deal struck and what is breaking it

Seems like the article is worth reading.

Like all things, it is an individual choice.

Thank God we got a President who actually care about the country.
Who actually cares about the people.

Hillary would have turned the entire country into one big Hollywood.

Maybe cankles is in a type of jail.

She went from Miss Popularity to “Hillary Who?” in a flash.
She has nothing to offer to anyone, so in the political world, she is a nobody. Her slush fund is drying up. She has no real friends. If this continues, she will be in a type of prison of loneliness and emptiness. And for an attention hound, that will be miserable.

The snippet is sufficient. If the FR reader sees an author or topic of interest, then "click" to the source. Blackmon seems to be reasonable and readable.

For example, a quote from the article:

Cilizza cannot bring himself to acknowledge the truth about Trump’s order to rescind Obama’s executive order that gave hundreds of millions in subsidies each year to insurance companies, which is that Obama’s order was patently unconstitutional. The Constitution clearly requires that all federal spending must be authorized by congress, and congress never authorized those payments. The fact is that Trump’s order is simply one piece of his ongoing campaign to return this country to the rule of law, a concept that was studiously ignored during Obama’s 8 years in office.

Yes, DB is a good writer and thoughtful analyst. Stories from most every source are excerpted (who would want 10k-word stories posted in full?) I have no trouble deciding whether to click through based on an excerpt. Someday he’s going to be a nationally syndicated columnist.

I am waiting for the complete meltdown of little Geirgie Stephanapolus. Preferably-—ON AIR.

That will be the ‘canary in the coal mine’ for me. He is totally in love with Shrillary & the Democrats. His years in the Clinton White House have certainly imprinted on his psyche.

Re: Puerto Rice:

Trump sent the Navy ship ‘Comfort’ to PR, after filling it with supplies.

I don’t know the total bed capacity of that HOSPITAL ship, but as of a couple of days ago-—8 (EIGHT) beds were occupied.

It is apparent that it probably will take a complete shipload of power & phone poles to fix the damage to PR, but I see very little evidence of those people even cleaning up the debris. They “cannot stay in their apartments or houses because they DO NOT have AIR CONDITIONING.” One family is staying in their car & burning gas all day long so they can sit in AIR CONDITIONING !!!

How poorly have we bred people who cannot do much to help themselves??? Makes me furious.
