How Must Poor Barack Obama Feel Now?
One has to have compassion for our beleaguered and ill-treated former president Barack Obama for the way events have developed since he left the White House.
Under President Donald Trump, many things have improved greatly and in a relatively short period of time. Let’s review a few of the areas where Obama could have done good things, but because of his radical, ultra-leftist, anti-America beliefs, he instead did very bad things:
The economy has surged. Illegal immigration has dropped dramatically. Sanctuary cities are in trouble and could lose federal money if they continue to break the law. Police officers are no longer being assassinated on a nearly daily basis. The lying press is being challenged for the lies they tell by our new and energetic president.
North Korea has the inevitable nuclear weapons that Obama permitted them to develop, but President Trump is standing up to them in a manly, presidential manner. Iran is working to become the next nuclear threat, following in North Korea’s foot steps and with the billions of dollars, Obama gave them. Obamacare’s failure and demise is now admitted by nearly all Democrats, and they are waiting for Trump to fix it and in doing so, save their butts for enacting it in the first place. The Paris Accords are history.

Progress is being made against ISIS now that the rules of engagement have been revised by Donald Trump to allow military personnel to be able to fight without having their hands tied behind their backs. Even Democrat, hack, talking heads like Nancy Pelosi are condemning the ultra left ANTIFA/ Occupy Wall Street groups for the violence and destruction they create and commit.
I have no doubt that our dearly departed Barry feels great about the diminished America he left behind. After all, he swore to “fundamentally transform America”, and he did exactly that. So what is there for him to regret? Not a whole lot.
Well, one area he would still love to be around for: the Houston hurricane destruction would be the perfect platform for him to strut around and pretend to show compassion and concern, and he would love to be in camera range so he could be photographed as he hugged and cried with the victims of the flooding and got the praise and admiration of the fawning press. https://www.conservativedailynews.com/2017/09/must-poor-barack-obama-feel-now/

I would think Obama feels like any man does who takes on a job, does the best he knows how and then someone else comes in afterwards and starts tearing apart everything you built. 

Both men undoubtedly thought and think they were and are doing the right thing. 

History will show us which one was more correct in the long term scheme of life.

The political pendulum swings back and forth.

This article is a new level of stupid that I didn't think achievable - comment removed-CoC violation.  Who knew that cops were being murdered on a "nearly daily basis" because of Barrack Obama?  You'd think that would have been in the news!

Some people Comment removed for CoC violation [ph] did blame Obama for the poor response to Katrina.  Apparently he wouldn't leave his golf game to visit Louisiana.  Of course, that might be because he was a US senator from IL and not the POTUS at the time but that's apparently no excuse for rightwing haters.

To the people who "flagged" this comment -  try to figure out what you are doing, if possible.

The article is satire isn't it? On the other hand it could be fairy tale.

Good article.

I would say that Trump has aleiviated a lot of the damage done by the leftist ideologue that moved America so far to the left, however much of the Obama legacy remains:

Obamacare has survived & is imploding while adding to the $20 trillion deficit Obama left the new administration.

The Iran deal has survived - only because all that remains of this dirty deal is what America is scheduled to get - inspections. (Iran got everything up front while Obama was in office, thus Trump was reluctant to end it)

All those radical leftist federal judges that Obama got to appoint, thanks to Harry Reid changing the Senate rules.

We have DACA coming up for a Presidential decision and then maybe a legal decision.

We still have all the things we are only now learning - like the fact that the FBI & DHS warning about antifa creating violence as far back as a year ago. We still have the facts of how the Clinton investigation was controlled & conducted coming out. Worst of all Obama has not totally left us. He and his many operatives are working on "redistricting"!

We still have a long way to go.

"We still have a long way to go."

......................................................

Go to where ?

The past ?

Good Luck. 

I've never seen anyone successfully go back in time.

I doubt it happens now. 

......................................................

Globalization is here,isolationism will stifle America ands we will fall further behind and under trump the rich will increase their  political power and the poor will suffer even more.

Mr childlike authoritarian style megalomaniac billionaire trump was hired to single handedly tear down the American government and rebuild one in his own vision... The founding fathers are surely spinning like tops by now.

.......................................................

Taking this huge left leaning country won't be quick, easy or probably without blood shed. Good luck republicans you own this mess lock, stock and barrel now.

Foreign policy is another disaster.

Iraq was a costly war that had been won. It could have been a valuable asset if we had forged a strategic alliance with one of the middle east's few democracies. A place where America could have influence in one of the worlds most volatile regions. All president Obama had to do was negotiate a new status of forces agreement - which everyone expected him to do. Instead he withdrew. ISIS was born (his jv league) and Iran became the power in the region.

North Korea was ignored for 8 years under the kick the can policy of "strategic patience". On his way out the door president Obama told the incoming President what a horrific problem North Korea had become.

The nation does not lean left:

PRINCETON, N.J. -- Conservatives continued to outnumber moderates and liberals in the U.S. population in 2014, as they have since 2009. However, their 14-percentage-point edge over liberals last year, 38% vs. 24%, is the smallest in Gallup's trends since 1992. The percentage of U.S. adults identifying themselves as politically conservative in 2014 was unchanged from 2013, as was the percentage of moderates, at 34%, while the percentage considering themselves liberal rose a percentage point for the third straight year.



Obama's overreach is what caused the Trump victory. He went too far & he was too obvious. Shame on John McCain for not making the Obama leftist associations an issue during the 2008 campaign. One thing that has been painfully learned by the American public is how identity politics works. They got it now - try it again (and it looks like the let will) - and they lose!

"The nation does not lean left"  

I hear that every time I post anything like this so,

Then  what's all the bitchin about ?

Why was trump elected ?  to keep the country going the same direction ?

LOL NO He was elected To start turning the country to the right, I Say again it isn't going too happen easily.

...........................................

One more fact many folks seem to hate and would love to ignore is more people actually voted to stay the course than voted for the change. 

Good luck !

Most people do not correctly identify what "liberal" or "conservative" means, and thus mislabel themselves.

Polling consistently shows a majority of Americans agree more with "liberal" policies than "conservative" ones when those policies are conveyed without a party or ideological label.

I believe there are more of us independents now that either major political party. People are seeing the light and pulling out of both corrupt parties.
