In 6 or 7 months, with the economy booming, the headlines will say “Foundation of economic growth laid by obama. Trump benefits.” The story will continue to state the Bush’s term was so bad that even obama could not recover it in a meer 8 years. If only he could have had 12. The MSM will not change.

Barack Ozymandias.

Very appropriate.

Many will look back on the Greek columns at his first presidential acceptance speech and dispair. Others will remember and laugh.

IIRC, they were, after all, styrofoam.

This guy is destined to become the Beltway version of David Dinkins.

Well, Dinkins was referred to as custodian where Golf-One will be a gay bath house towel attendant.

Carter started the modern radical Islam issue replacing the Iranian secular leader with a radical Islamic one.

Clinton repaired Chinese rocket technology and gifted them missile guidance technology so China could nuke every city in the USA and around the world.

Obama lost a won Iraq and gave it to radical Islam. Had red lines he would not defend and destabilizing Libya and the region gifting millions of Islamic radicals into Europe as refugees.
Backed the Arab Spring, reset buttons with Russia. Back stabbed Israel anywhere he could.
Took in almost no Christian refugees from the Middle East and just let tens of thousands die.
No real response to radical Islam/Sharia and the problem vastly grew.
Politicized the IRS, had people audited and status for conservative PACs denied or stalled for years.
Exasperated race relations always backing the black no matter the criminality.
Spied on the Washington press computers, phones and all communications.
Spied on all our allies.
Gave 400 million to Iran for hostages and 150 billion for nothing.

Should be in the bottom three of all time, but will be held up higher for being born black for sure. He will be given the demeaning treatment of expecting less from him because he was black.

Oh, and the black guy took our national credit card and more than doubled our national debt.

A legion of writers working nearly 24/7 at VJ’s request are busy cooking up likely events which could plausibly have happened and will constitute his legacy - their only hold up is the requirement from the ruling mullahs to pray five times a day ...

George Herbert Walker Bush, when running for reelection against Bill Clinton in 1992, had served four years as president, eight years as vice president, as the head of the Republican National Committee, as head of the CIA, as United States ambassador to the United Nations, as a member the House of Representatives and as a decorated a World War II Naval aviator.

Larry Elder apparently buys into the idea that a lifetime in government is what "qualifies" you for the Presidency. They give you information on how the bureaucracy works and who holds power, they give you access to secrets and data on where they bodies are buries, they make you one of the club. But those years do not make you qualified to be President nor do they ensure you'll be even a mediocre one. I would suggest they almost guarantee that you'll be a mediocre one AT BEST.

Our last four presidents never did a thing in the private sector. They all stunk on ice. Reagan was great, he had a life before politics unlike those others. Let's see what someone with real world experience can give us.

His legacy is...

he is the worst president in the American history...

whose adversarial use of the tyranny of the federal government woke true Americans up to start a movement to take back America and make her great again.

IMO, that was his purpose and the reason God allowed him to become President in the first place.

“Those writing the history books are liberal.”

We must hammer the left like Charles Martel, again, and again, and again, until they have no voice in anything, ever.

A charismatic leader is needed to inspire parents to rise up and demand that those history books not be used.

You just know he’ll be on every Sunday talk show, writing (with help!) op-ed pieces, constantly saying how he would do things differently, etc.

He’s never going away...

Obama’s claim about a Third Term is not unreasonable.

In 2016, Obama’s job approval held very consistently in the 50% to 55% range.

Job approval polling started in the 1930s, and no incumbent president with a 50% rating, or higher, has ever lost a reelection.

Trump, on the other hand, lost the Popular Vote by almost 3 million votes to a weak candidate, Hillary Clinton.

And, Trump won the three decisive states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania by a total margin of less than 80,000 votes.

Pictures of his kids real parents. They travel with them frequently. Perhaps even a picture of Michael in a spandex outfit. Obama is not going quietly. Everything about him was a lie. He cannot allow all of those lies to be revealed.

Was a link from a Zero Hedge comment. Probably too conspiratorial for here yet. We have to be more civilized here. And I do not post over there. Too many Israeli haters. But seeing that Obama may release Armageddon here within three weeks, because he frankly has no other choice, will work on finding a cleaned up link for you. Will post it here later today.
