For those of you moaning and groaning about what Trump hasn't done for you, the Left is taking notice about what he is doing to them! Isn't this what most of you wanted?
Trump and the dismantling of Obama's legacy
AFP Jerome CARTILLIER,AFP Sun, Oct 15 10:02 AM EDT
Washington (AFP) - Brick by brick, the demolition job has begun: since taking office less than a year ago, Donald Trump has launched an all-out assault on the legacy of Barack Obama.
Climate, free trade, health care, immigration, foreign policy -- the 45th US president has set about undoing just about everything done by the 44th.
All new presidents, of course, break with their predecessor once in the Oval Office, especially if they come from a rival political party.
But what is striking is how systematic the hammer blows to Obama's legacy have been.
And rather than throw his weight behind new policies or projects, Trump has shown a willful desire to unpick, shred and erase everything his predecessor accomplished.
It's worth noting that each time he buries one of the reforms of the man who sat before him at the "Resolute desk," Trump sounds more like a candidate than a president.
- 'Ridiculous trade deals' -
The Trans-Pacific Partnership? Within days of taking office, Trump signed an order pulling America out of the free trade accord, the fruit of eight years of negotiations between 12 Asia-Pacific countries, from Chile to Canada and Japan.
"We're going to stop the ridiculous trade deals that have taken everybody out of our country and taken companies out of our country, and it's going to be reversed," Trump said.
Paradoxically, in signing off on the project's demise, Trump was aligning himself more with the left wing of the Democratic party than with the Republican mainstream.
The Paris climate accord? Obama played a leading role in attaining that milestone in the effort to combat global warming.
Trump pulled out of the agreement signed by 195 countries, claiming that it "punishes the United States" and declaring: "I was elected to represent the citizens of Pittsburgh, not Paris."
What about Obamacare, the signature legislative achievement of Obama's first term? After trying in vain to get Congress to repeal it, Trump is now working to bring about its collapse through the regulatory process.

I don't believe zero has a "legacy", unless one believes lieberals and lieberals working in fake news. Zero's "legacy" is comprised of unconstitutional actions, treason, treachery, and and lies.
We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?
Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.

Legacy only in the mind of a delusional fruitcake. He did nothing but break the law and undermine the greatest country the world has ever known.

If only as in the old Bob Newhart show, we could waken, and those eight years could only have been a bad dream.

Obongo's only "legacy" is replacing Jimmy Carter as the worst President in our lifetimes, and setting back the chance of there ever being another negro President elected in the U.S. by half a century or more...

Confused here. Obama's legacy is a failed agenda. Better to erase it rather than undo it. Maybe the term reboot is appropriate? That's what we usually do following a system crash.

God bless 45's efforts and may we all be great instruments of his support.
May the left's every nightmare come true.
