I would've added the word "colossal" in the title, but no need to split hairs. 8 years of apologizing for America, running up a $10 TRILLION DOLLAR tab, race-baiting every possible situation, and committing one foreign policy blunder after another.

Oh, and good luck finding very many people who still admit to having supported him. It was easier to find someone who admitted they liked disco in 1982, than it is to find a proud Obama supporter in 2017

LINK

quote:

The closing arguments for the Obama years are arriving, and they aren’t helping the outgoing president. A case in point is a new book published this week, one that acknowledges “Obama’s supporters have experienced [his presidency] as a continuous disappointment.”

Those supporters, and others, must have noticed that “for most of Obama’s term, wage gains were largely confined to the rich.” Or that “The administration’s planning in Libya clearly failed” or “It is certain that the actual outcome [of Obama’s Syria policy] was disastrous.”

Even many of President Obama’s proudest achievements look about as enduring as April snow: “If there was a single aspect of Obama’s legacy most vulnerable to reversal, it was his achievements on climate change,” the book says, and “Obama’s regulatory offensive is, of course, vulnerable to reversal by Donald Trump or the Supreme Court, since it rested upon executive action.” The longest chapter is titled “The Inevitability of Disappointment.”

It was an ABSOLUTE failure. He left the US and the world seriously diminished and unstable. He presided over 8 years of American Declinism, and he did so gleefully. And of course, Obama-ism spawned a generation of SJW hysterics who will wreak cultural havoc for another 50 years. People who spin for him are absolute hacks.

You won't find many here, since most of us are either conservative or libertarian in our leanings.

Obama Approval Chart But apparently over half of the country was willing to admit approval to some capacity up until his last day in office.

I think he was pretty bad, but the Republican's made his last few years OK by preventing more meddling (e.g., Obamacare).

You have to understand the nature of buckeye vol. I could post "Water is liquid," and he would counter with "Not when it's frozen."

Your Obama obsession continues I see.

Let's see.

What was Obama's approval ratings on his last day in office?

What are Trump's current ones?

I'll wait while you google them up...though I'm sure you will just scream fake news...or fake polls or what ever your usual go to line is when presented with the facts.

Are you joking? Have you forgotten about the Cambridge Police situation? Trayvon Martin (his son)? Ferguson? Baltimore? Embracing a domestic terrorist organization like blm? Choosing Al Sharpton as his chief advisor on race relations? Hell, he created a racially toxic environment that led to an epidemic of cop assassinations.

That bastard will rot in Hell for his race-baiting alone.

The one thing that I had hoped would come out from the obama presidency was that the black/white relations would start to heal and that we could start coming together more as Americans and as equals.

Unfortunately, obama went the opposite direction.

He chose hate and the 'divide-and-conquer' strategy.

I am hoping that a successful Trump presidency can persuade more blacks and other races to view America as just that, America.

Over half the country also wishes we were Mexico or the ME.

Besides, your link shows no source authority. Fail.

I approve of you and you suck as a poster. I approve of the New Orleans saints and they are really bad. You love boy bands and other umm... stuff. People like things that aren't good or successful all the time. Obama remained personally popular even as people acknowledged that he was wrecking everything he touched. That's a function of his race at this moment in American history. He was insulated from honest evaluation by Cultural progressivism.
