Good point.

Thankfully Obama's ravings about Putin and criticism of Trump will soon be history. You won't have to be tired of it anymore.

Imagine if he was already under consideration for the Nobel prize. Now that would be a real honeymoon.

Hope and Change. I'm not sure it worked out.

Noble ideas in the wrong hands.

Politicians don't do anything they just take orders. The rich elite that is comprised of rich and powerful families, bankers, CEOs, etc. Those people are the ones who dictate what happens in this planet. Think Bilderberg group

8 years ago, the economy was in a free fall and we've now had the longest period of economic and job growth in recent history.

Thousands of jobs coming coming back via reshoring**, wages going up, home prices going up, Stock Market going up...

I'd say a lot of things are working out. Trump and the Republicans have some big shoes to fill here.

Have you had disappointments in life that you are blaming on Obama?


**"Sixty thousand manufacturing jobs were added in the U.S. in 2014, versus 12,000 in 2003, either through so-called reshoring, in which American companies bring jobs back to the U.S., or foreign direct investment, in which foreign companies move production to the U.S., according to a study from the Reshoring Initiative. In contrast, as many as 50,000 jobs were “offshored” last year, a decline from about 150,000 in 2003."

Record number of manufacturing jobs returning to America - MarketWatch

Manufacturers bringing the most jobs back to America

"Manufacturers like Hessaire are part of a growing move to “re-shore” manufacturing jobs that were once lost to countries such as China and Mexico. The Reshoring Initiative, a group that focuses on bringing manufacturing jobs back to the U.S., estimates that between 2009 and 2016 more than 250,000 jobs were created or brought to the U.S. from other countries."

Trumps actions are pretty unusual for a president elect, doing his best to undermine an existing administration. Most spend the 2 months trying to bring those that voted against him together, you know start to sound presidential like your leading the country rather than railing against the other party. Both sides are glad this is over but for completely different reasons, now Trump will be responsible for his actions.

Yeah I'm looking forward to seeing Trump f**** up the country too. He's got two years to do it before the GOP is reduced to ashes in Congress. Gonna be a good show indeed!

2 months? Having that bloviated con man monopolizing the dumbed down profit driven media for close to two years of an insanely long election season has been maddening. It actually motivated me to finally cut the cable cord and switch to an Internet browser with a homepage void of news, ads and video. The less seen and heard of that corrupt orange buffoon, the better.
