Blocking whatever is left of his agenda I like the sound of that.

Americans just had to assuage their indoctrinated white guilt by electing and re-electing (just to show their sincerity) a black leftist radical redistributionist, so that all of America could follow the example of Detroit, South Africa, Haiti, etc.

And I don’t want to hear about Ben Carson, who does not unreservedly support the Second Amendment, which is the guarantee of all our other rights, or Allen West, who voted for the Pigford redistribution scam and is unapologetic about it.

Unless you’re one of his backers, like George Soros, in which case the world is not enough.

Victory lap-that was his “Mission Accomplished” moment for which he should have been mocked and scorned, if we still had a free and unbiased media instead of the propaganda wing of the left.

America has been in decline since the Patriot Act. To have any chance at “fixing” it, we must lay blame on ALL who are responsible.

The US is in decline because its economy is in decline. This decline started before Obama and will continue regardless of who is President. Now who is to blame? And how could it be remedied?

Who? The US has passed laws which have facilitated the exporting the production of wealth. Both parties and all Presidents signed off making us a consumer of wealth nation. Hence we are in a decline driven by national policies. There is an imbalance in Congress between strong Wall Street advocates and weak Main Street advocates. Campaign money rules.

What to do? Restore MADE IN USA.

You do realize that the following must then abolished:
* US Department of Labor
* All Federal Minimum Wage Laws
* OSHA
* EPA
* All Federal work-related laws and regulations
* All Labor Unions, staring with teachers Unions, followed by any and all Federal State and local government employees unions
* Any form of Collective bargaining.
* Corporate taxation
* And the IRS.

Look elsewhere. When they were strong the country was strong. Fix what’s needed in them.

” - - - Fix what’s needed in them. - - - “

How has that worked out in actual practice?

Sems to me that everything that Federal Politicians or Bureaucrats “Fix” ends up worse than before.

I call it the “Federal Fecal Finger Touch.”
