A surprisingly optimistic President Obama predicted that Republicans will undo just 15 to 20 percent of his policies when Donald Trump takes office in January — despite the president-elect’s vow to overturn all of his executive orders.
“Maybe 15 percent of that gets rolled back, 20 percent, but there’s still a lot of stuff that sticks,” Obama told the New Yorker.
He conceded that ObamaCare could take a hit.
“That has been a unifying bogeyman for Republicans over the course of the last six years,” the president said.
“In the minds of a lot of the Republican base, it is an example of a big government program designed to take something from them and give it to someone else who is unworthy.”
But, he added, if Trump and the GOP-controlled Congress only “modify but still maintain a commitment to provide health insurance for the people who received it, then a whole bunch of stuff hasn’t gone out the window.”
Obama also said he believed the Iran nuke deal — another frequent Trump target — would survive.

Defund sanctuary cities.
Defund planned parenthood.
Fund additional police.
Return education to the states.
Agreed.
I would like to read about her and know where she is.
She is NOT going gently into that good night, IMHO.
But so far all of the conspiracy theories have been wrong, and I am glad :)
I hope Clown Prince nobama continues to believe his delusion...until Jan 20, 2017, when President Trump acts.
Militant stupidity .. boyhowdy, that's our Jugeared boy !
Delusion runs deep on the left
Obama needs the Pharaoh treatment.
“Let the name of Obama be stricken from every book and tablet, stricken from all pylons and obelisks, stricken from every monument of Americat. Let the name of Obama be unheard and unspoken, erased from the memory of men for all time.”
This is going to be a long painful 2 months.
“Maybe 15 percent of that gets rolled back, 20 percent, but there’s still a lot of stuff that sticks,” Obama told the New Yorker.
Just don’t check the news too often after you get your sorry ass booted out of the White House, or your illusions will be immediately lit up like a bonfire.
Meanwhile, all of the rest of us will be have a pretty-much non-stop celebration starting mid-day on January 20, first and foremost to celebrate your permanent retirement from elective office, and then to revel in all of the changes that Trump will make. We are SOOOOOO looking forward to seeing all of you Leftists having your heads explode in rage at the policies that Trump implements.
Hey, remember not to let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. Putz!
Go smoke some more choom, Barry.
Better yet the Benito treatment.
yeah, right... 
Didn’t Obama campaign for Hillary on the theme that his entire legacy hung in the balance?
And by the way....I think 20% is a lot.
My next post is all his orders.
Keeping thinking that Barry for the next 63 days...
There are things that Trump can’t change because it requires Congress to change them, but as far as Obama’s Executive Orders go, Obama is just whistling past the graveyard here.
Dear Trump, erase 0bama. Thanks in advance!
