Was former President Obama the “scandal free,” top 10 greatest president he claimed to be as he exited the White House?
To his aides and most in the media, the answer has been a hearty “yes.”
The View’s Joy Behar said, “President Obama, for eight years, was completely scandal-free.” NBC’s Tom Brokaw said, “He’s been scandal free, frankly, in the White House. We haven’t had that what for a while.”
But now, to counter that legacy campaign, biographer Matt Margolis has penned a book detailing some 29 “scandals” under Obama in, “The Scandalous Presidency of Barack Obama.”
It reviews some of the bigger affairs, such as the Benghazi attacks, and littler ones, like his stonewalling of the media, in an effort to chip away at Obama’s stain-free legacy.
And it also details the ways the media sometimes played along -- or played dead -- in a pattern that has been flipped in the coverage of President Trump.
“Obama’s supporters in the media, academia, and the grassroots of the Democratic Party are invested in the idea that his presidency was an unparalleled success, and that he was the archetype of presidential ethics. Nothing could be further from the truth, as the following pages prove, but if they repeat their lies often enough, perhaps others will believe them,” wrote Margolis.
He also hopes that it keeps a focus on Obama’s administration and its effort to help 2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton.

The tactic was to use his half black side as the race card and have so many simultaneous scandals, that our side would be spinning. It worked like a charm as the GOP were cowards and the treasonous media buried them all. We will be suffering from Obama for decades to come.
Excellent compilation.
How could you not?
The framers and founders are pissed at us..."A Republic, if you can keep it."
Media ridicule is a powerful force that ironically many in positions of power, cower to.
Obama's actions served to demoralize a nation......his legacy is one of marginalizing law-abiding, go-getter Americans.
Obama triggered the rise of misfits, miscreants, ne're-do-wells, and misanthropes, and enabled them to hold sway over American culture.
The detrimental results of his presidency speak to Obama's hatred for superpower America.
Even more egregious one could conclude Obama might have given explicit orders.......
”no one in the Democrat party should ever mention the United States of America ever again.”
