Obama was the worst president of my lifetime. His only accomplishment was Obamacare, and that was forged in endless deceptions of the American public, and bending of Senate and Congress rules to get it over the finish line, with votes slipped by on Thanskgiving, Christmas and New Years when the public wasn't watching.
And a bunch of executive orders that Obama rammed through, such as DACA, that likewise bypassed the rule of law to pander to identity politics, to give Obama a narrow voting majority of millennials, racially-stoked minorities, and the far-Left. But at a tremendous cost of splintering the nation along race and class lines, deliberately, for his own short-term political gain, at a tremendous long-term cost to the nation.
To me that is the defining characteristic of Obama's 8 years:
Alinsky-style demagoguery. The same tactics he perfected as a "community organizer" Marxist agitator for ACORN. Obama is a
Marxist revolutionary who despises America, and has done everything he could to destroy it, and "radically transform" it into a European-style socialist state. Using Stalinist-type abuses of the IRS, DOJ, FBI, CIA, DNI, EPA and other federal agencies, to "punish" his political opposition and intimidate them into silence, by any abuse of power available to him. That is the danger of Obama, Hillary and the Far-Left, they don't believe in rule of law, but in (Alinsky/Lenin/Trotsky/Mao-style) strong-arming power by any deceitful circumnavigation of the law available to them.
