A simply, honest, non-partisan, non-insulting question: Why start the clock at eight years?Mr.B wrote:What the ones who voted against him don't realize, or don't want to admit, is the effects of the last 8 years is what got Trump elected,
Obama has simply continued the policies of the previous administration. As Bannination documented above, any time Obama tried to fix things - often using what are now Trump's solutions - Republicans blocked it.
Understand, the Republicans-dominated do-nothing Congress is NOT business as usual. Sure, Democrats had abused the fake-filibuster process. But Republicans using it to block EVERYTHING - as their openly stated policy yet - is new.
So one more time: Why start the clock with Obama? And why expect things to change after Obama?
