I agree with you that Trump has indeed removed lots of business regulations.

But business regulations are often in place to protect consumers from corrupt practices of big business. People conveniently forget that business regulations aren't all about red tape. They're meant to protect people, you know, the "little guy" that Trump promised to protect, and they bought into his rhetoric. A sampling of a few examples that the Trump administration has gotten behind/signed into law:

Repeal of the business regulation that used to mean ISPs couldn't sell their customers personal data to companies that Trump signed into law (and his Republican counterparts supported)

Repealing net neutrality

Repealing consumer protection against predatory lending practices

Having a lax interpretation of clean air laws requiring reduction in air pollution

Trump has done more damage than any president in history. Even if he is removed in the near future, the damage to this country will be long lasting.

Obama will be viewed in the top quartile of all presidents. History will view him higher because of the Trump fiasco.

He can hold his breath far longer than any President before him.

He's better at everything than any other President before him. Other than marriage that is. He's not very good at that.
Plus, he is willing to run into a building with an active shooter without a weapon of his own. Yay!

OH JOYOUS, what an accomplishment.

And that ladys in gentlemen is why we got 10 trillion in debt under Obama and still have crap Infrastructure.
If you want to do that start a charity, don't steal my tax money and a spend it like your drunk.

We now have a president who puts America first.

And Obamacare was a failure whereas Tax Cuts were a great idea.
Actually, the record shows that he mostly stood around (well, in between weekends spent golfing) while the republicans blundered their way into finally coming up with something that they could get their side of the aisle to agree upon after multiple failed attempts. Then, he took all the credit. Seems pretty typical - do none of the work, and grab all the reward.

Whereas Obama added to the deficit without even helping anyone.
Amazing how much better adding to the deficit is when it is your side doing the adding.
