Who has he ever persuaded? They rammed through Obamacare and Stimulus and General Motors bailout and Iran Nuclear deal due to a Milquetoast Congress. He went to England to talk about staying in the EU. He does not have a very good track record.
His track record goes back to his failure to win Chicago the Olympics, like 2 days after her got in office.
Remember, he got the 2016 Summer Olympics for Chicago, his home town. As of now he’s persuaded all the gang bangers to turn in their guns, sit down, hold hands, and sing Kumbaya. Not only that, due to his efforts, no Chicago gang bangers were shot in all of June and the Bloods’ girls and Crips’ boys went onto the Magnificent Mile and had a totally nonviolent giant
Love-in.
There was his effort to get the Olympics. Oh, wait.... :=)
