Historian Jon Meacham is no conservative. Yet he made these absolutely damning comments about Obama today, comparing him to Carter at his “malaise” worst.
Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.
Obama is doing terribly in all areas of government.
Politically, it does feel like 1980 all over again. And, I would note, that Trump is being reviled in the exact same way and by the exact same people (or their political heirs) as was Ronald Reagan.
The only question is: how much has the American demographic and its electorate changed? They did, after all, elect Clinton and Obama, neither of whom would ever have been elected by Americans voting in 1980.
