Hopefully, and with any luck, right about the time that President Trump is finishing up his eighth year in office it will be as if Barry ‘O’ had never been president. And I think that’s the one thing that terrifies Democrats most of all about President Trump, and why there has been such a concerted effort by those on the left to do all that they can in their attempt to remove him from office. But as has been mentioned more than a few times, of late, it’s in spite of ‘news’ coverage that has been over 90 percent negative practically since he took office that his approval rating continues to tick upward and is now higher than Barry’s was at the same point in his first term.
And might I say that never has there been a
president who was more deserving of having his ‘legacy’ erased, and to make it
appear as if his presidency never even happened, than Barry ‘O’. The ONLY positive thing that resulted from
his having been in office is that we ended up with President Trump. Because, as I have said on any number of
previous occasions, had Barry not been elected president I am very firmly
convinced there would have never been a President Trump. Barry set out to “fundamentally change
America.” And now Trump is fundamentally
changing Barry’s legacy. Barry is now being
fundamentally erased, as if he was never elected.
And the decision by President Trump to withdraw from
the nuclear deal with Iran is the biggest blow, but it’s only the latest. The
elimination of the individual mandate and canceling the yearly bailout of
insurance companies has left Obamacare in a precarious condition. Young immigrants whose parents brought them to
the United States unlawfully, the so-called dreamers, are losing their legal
status. This is historic. Presidents often vow to wipe out big chunks of
their predecessor’s legacies. President
Eisenhower was going to take on the ‘New Deal’, Ronald Reagan targeted ‘The
Great Society.’ Both backed down. President Trump, so far, has not.
But Barry and Democrats made President Trump’s task a
relatively easy one. Barry, as you’ll
recall, succeeded brilliantly in the first two years of his presidency when
Democrats controlled Congress. But once
Republicans held the House, Senate, or both over the next six years, he ignored
Capitol Hill whenever he thought he could get away with it. He spared himself the unpleasantness of having
to compromise with Republicans and instead governed by executive orders and
regulations. And as he is now finding
out, actions taken by the president alone prove vulnerable to being erased by
subsequent presidents. And that’s what happened to the pact with Iran.
Democrats went so far as to use the filibuster to
block even a nonbinding vote on it. President Trump killed the deal with his pen.
That was also all it took to quit the Paris accord on global warming. There were two factors behind Barry’s
decision to shun a treaty, which requires a two-thirds vote in the Senate.
Winning that lopsided a vote appeared to be impossible. On the other hand,
Barry had a backup, Hitlery. She was expected to win the presidency in 2016 and
could then be relied upon to protect the nuclear agreement. But a funny thing happened on the way to the
inauguration, Hitlery lost the election.
And Barry’s legacy is now going up in smoke.
On immigration, Barry might well have prevailed had
he sought congressional approval of legal status for young illegals, the
dreamers. Again, Republican votes would have been needed. He rejected that. And since Barry said he
couldn’t legally act on his own, it looked like nothing would be done. Then he changed his mind and simply announced
the approach known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals. Neither a
regulation nor a law, it’s simply a policy. With Barry gone, it lacks a
presidential defender. Trump abandoned
it, though he’s offered a pact to keep the dreamers here: They’d be legalized
and Trump would get his wall on the southwest border.
Which would seem to be a pretty straightforward
exchange, except for one thing. Democrats remain stubbornly opposed to the
wall. It’s more important to them than even
the fate of hundreds of thousands of dreamers, so Democrats declined. Which leads to another problem they’ve
created for themselves, one that further jeopardizes Barry’s legacy while
making political life less of a struggle for President Trump and Republicans. Democrats have adopted a strategy of resisting
President Trump across the board. It’s
blind resistance, all anger and ideology with absolutely no amount of commonsense
thrown in. And there haven’t been any
exceptions.
As much as Barry and Democrats are to blame, Barry’s
incredible shrinking legacy isn’t entirely their fault. A good bit is the
result of Trump’s success and canny choice of issues. On foreign policy, does anyone want to return
to the days of appeasing North Korea? Should
the American embassy in Israel be moved back to Tel Aviv at the earliest
opportunity? Should we go back to
insisting that concessions by Israel provide a path to peace in the Middle
East? On domestic issues, Barry’s legacy
has better prospects for survival, or at least for being revived by some future
Democrat majority in Congress. That’s because
the Democrat mindset on taxes is locked in place.
Finally, Barry ‘O’ set out to fundamentally degrade America, internally and externally, and he was largely successful because our cadre of RINOs in Congress simply rolled over and essentially funded him 100 percent for eight years. And what about the social fabric of our nation? Look where the promotion of homosexual marriage/ adoption and transgender “rights” has lead us. Look at the black racism in the BLM movement and in racial alliance with violent black thugs that Barry openly promoted. President Trump needs to continue the dismantling of Barry’s legacy and to root out the pernicious residue left behind by this anti-America traitor!
