President-elect Donald Trump was surprisingly gracious as he met President Barack Obama in the Oval Office on Thursday but make no mistake: He is already working to erase major parts of Obama’s legacy from the history books.
Trump will be able to change some of Obama’s policies with a quick stroke of the pen. Others will be much more difficult, requiring justification to pass legal hurdles or buy-in from lawmakers on Capitol Hill or foreign leaders.

The media just can't help itself, can it?
It’s be great to see Trump dressed up as the Character in the movie Eraser at his inauguration telling Obama “You’ve been erased!”
One thing about governing via executive order...the next guy can just wipe out everything the day he takes office.
All that president-elect Trump needs to do with Obama’s policies and executive orders is to check each of them against Congress’s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers. And if no clause in Section 8 can be found to justify an Obama policy then Trump needs to start working with the RINO-controlled Congress to repeal it.
Noting that Congress wrongly remained silent with a lot of lawless Obama’s unconstitutional actions, things can get messy for Trump when he works with Congress.
Considering how horribly Obama spoke about Trump on the campaign trail the past week or two, Obama better be glad he still has his teeth.
I would half expect Trump to go directly to the people and tell them to contact their representatives in that case.
Proverbs 11:29 He that troubles his own house shall inherit the wind.
Obama has troubled and divided America’s house for eight years. Trump needs to make sure that Obama’s legacy is gone with the wind.
Do with Obama what the ancient Egyptians did with Akhenaten. Sandblast his name from all monuments. Burn any document in which he is mentioned. And bulldoze that hideous brown hut built on the National Mall.
And then get serious.
The term Obamacare will go down in history. As a complete failure. Now that’s a legacy.
I’m very hopeful we see a lot of quick reversals there.
Erase Obama from every history reference, he is a total disgrace and every reference to him should be erased from every history reference source.
Lord! It’s a miracle! Legacy just up and vanished like a fart in the wind!
I don’t know why history should be cleansed, or nobody will learn from it.
When I review a list of American Presidents; the only thing I want to see between ‘Bush’ and ‘Trump’ is ‘*’.
“President-elect Donald Trump was surprisingly gracious...”
This writer is unsurprisingly biased and moronic.
Star?
Congress needs to be shamed for not standing up to the Terrorist in Chief. Bring back the Constitution.
