Thanks to Donald Trump, the dangerous legacy of Barack Obama has been erased.
The Presidency of Barack Obama was characterized by radical policy shifts—the implementation of Obamacare (the first steps toward socialized medicine); unprecedented expansion of the big government regulatory state; the prioritization of pie-in-the-sky environmental concerns over jobs and economic growth; a foreign policy based on secret dealings, appeasement, and “leading from behind”; and a concerted effort to institutionalize political correctness in colleges, high schools, and even elementary schools across the nation.
But within the blink of an eye, nearly the entire Obama legacy has been undone before the end of Donald Trump’s first term in office. This remarkable book details the scope of the Trump upheaval, exploring the destructive path Obama set the nation toward, how Trump has begun to right the ship…and how much more still needs to be done.
Many of the Americans who voted for Donald Trump did so simply to oppose the Clinton machine and to block a continuation of the Obama era. They had little hope or expectation that Trump would make good on his promises to undo the entire Obama agenda. This book not only details how Trump made good on those promises and saved America from Obama's legacy, but also makes the case for why Trump deserves reelection in 2020.
Slanted and functional account of the issue by issue comparison of Obama vs the then as yet unimpeached Trump. It’s only worth reading for a presidential history completionist and should be read with grains of salt.
Despite conservative propaganda like this book, Obama will always go down in history as one of the more popular and well-loved presidents of all time, even when GOP was blocking all his agenda.
While the bunkerboy will be the butt of jokes for years to come way after Biden kicks his ass. Imagine the only president who didn't concede gracefully and the death of hundreds of thousand Americans because he is too stupid to care.
No matter how many books like this come out from the conservative trumptards, Obama's legacy is already secure. While in the next 10-15 years, if you ask anyone in the world who is the worst leader of all time, it will be a toss-up between hitler, stalin, and Trump.
I found this book very interesting and a hoot to read. For those who still think Obama was a great president please read this book. I highly recommend this book to all Americans.
Always good to read books from both sides of the tracks. To be fair though, there aren’t that many books on this side of the tracks.
An interesting read and, of course, very objective as evidenced by a few select quotes:
“Due process may have been an antiquated notion during the Obama years, but under Trump, the Constitution still matters.”
“Donald Trump and Barack Obama had very different visions for the United States’ immigration policy. Barack Obama didn’t understand the purpose of the borders, resulting in a collection of confused, mostly open policies that left America less safe. Donald Trump, however, has aggressively sought to secure our border and enforce our immigration laws.”
“Obama may not have been concerned about the risks, but President Trump was.”
“On Trump’s watch, many Obama-era environmental regulations met their end. But that doesn’t mean Trump doesn’t believe in being a good steward of the environment. “We want clean, beautiful water. We want crystal clear air. We want our air to be the best,” Trump explained in his August 2, 2018 rally in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania.”
Excellent book explaining how President Trump is turning President Obama's two terms into a pair of parentheses, as Charles Krauthammer succinctly put it. In almost every aspect, President Trump is reversing President Obama's disastrous domestic and foreign policies. Many of Obama's policies and directives would surprise, shock and horrify even Obama's biggest liberal supporters. They would concede President Trump is right to change these aspects of President Obama's terms in office that weakened America and hurt the American people--by design.
The book doesn't mention the 2020 presidential election campaign, but it's clear the unhinged Democrats running for president make President Obama look like a moderate centrist. We can't let them take over and wreak havoc on America.
This book is a farce and completely ignores the fact that the traitor republicans decided to block 100% of Obama’s agenda, even if they agreed with it! This is not how our country is suppose to work and the reason we are on the verge of civil war. Republicans just can’t accept the fact that they are becoming more and more unpopular. Ther remedy? Lie, cheat and steal and unfortunately it seems to be working. In the end though, they will end-up with same fate as all other fascist from history.
Obama was announced by the media and late night shows in US as the most scandal-free president in history. Do you really think so?
This book proves Obama as the worst president in history. There's lots of evidence and cases where Obama time and time again proves dangerous for America. Very good book for awareness rising.
The more I read about the corruption of the Obama administration, the more convinced I am that this divisive man is solely to blame for the current state of affairs in our country today. This liberal, communist sympathizer was indeed One Big Ass Mistake America. And now here we are in the middle of a third term as this man is undoubtedly the puppet master of Joke Biden.
Generally agreed with it, though as one can glean from the subtitle, it's very biased. It won't convince a lefty to like Trump, but it might convince a conservative that Trump is better than they initially thought.
A short story of how President Obama used Executive Orders (not legitimately through Congress) to change our country into a democratic socialist system.
To the point and clearly explained topic by topic. But author should have avoided his personal opinion during the facts and must have sticked to the facts only.
More excellent work by Margolis; much like Worst President it is quite biased but heavily footnoted with external references backing it up. Whether you're a fan or detractor of the 45th president or his predecessor this book is very much worth a read.
