There was nothing he could do to ensure his legacy be protected. The GOP controlled both houses of Congress for 6 years, a direct result of passing an unpopular health care bill, made unpopular by a very successful GOP disinformation campaign. America didn’t know they wanted it. They do now, but it’s too late to help Obama. He was the most disrespected president I’ve ever seen. It was sickening to watch people interrupt his speeches to call him a liar and put their finger in the president’s face while chewing him out. Nobody has EVER thought they could do that to a white guy in the presidency.
Conservatives like to pretend he was the most corrupt president ever. I absolutely LOVE that claim. Republicans controlled all 3 branches of government for the first 2 years of Trump’s presidency. They had all the power for 2 years. And during that time, how many convictions did they get on Obama? How many indictments? Hell, how many investigations? What’s that? None? Not one? The most corrupt president of all time wasn’t even investigate for ANYTHING other than the racist birther shit, even after Republicans took complete control for 2 years? Could they not find Kryptonite to take him down? Did he threaten to just fly off into space and shoot them with his laser beam eyes if they moved on him? It’s really easy to lay that one to rest on the spot and let the person making the claim know, without any uncertainty, that they just said something very, very stupid.
