Is Donald Trump trying to dismantle Barack Obama's legacy?

[The Arizonan]

Donald Trump has done several deplorable things, including trying to repeal Obamacare and now he's banning transgendered people from serving in the military.

Several former presidents must be rolling in their graves ever since he took office.

If time travel was possible and I had a time machine, I'd go back in time and find Friedrich Trump.

[Grumpier Than Uncle Joe]

Sure he is.

[Mr. Reactionary]

What legacy?

[BudgieForce]

Yep. And its going to be all the more satisfying when the presidential ranking chart comes out and Obama is green and Trump is bright Red.

This is a good attempt at parody unless you really think Richard Nixon, JFK and Lincoln alike would all be upset about a prohibition on transgender military personnel.

[Santander]

What legacy?

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

What legacy?

[Grumpier Than Thou]

Considering he has actively stated that is his goal, yes. He is.

[Xing]

That's been the singular goal of the Republican Party in Congress since 2009. It's not just Trump.

[Absentee Voting Ghost of Ruin]

Obama's legacy? Not exactly. He's trying (clumsily) to dismantle the good legacies of all these men:





And the work of many other great men and women.

No, several former presidents must be rolling over in their graves because Donald Trump is not fit to be president and he's besmirching the office.

William McKinley certainly is.

[Sir Mohamed]

Absolutely. And not just Obama's. These presidents shown above included as well as Truman, JFK, LBJ and Clinton. Even Reagan in some areas (trade, immigration).

[Higgins]

He is the Jacobin President, and he will destroy America. Piss be upon him, and a curse on his house. After his Presidency, i wish we could do as the Romans did and pretend he never existed, and exile his family.

[Coraxion]

What legacy?

The 111th Congress was the most productive since the Great Society. It is technically Pelosi's legacy, but Obama isn't the only President who gets credit for what Congress did.

Meanwhile, Trump hasn't done anything but slam Neil Gorsuch down our throats.

[Hammy]

"Is Trump trying to dismantle civilized society?" is probably the more pressing question.

[GGover]

Yes, and he's doing a horrible job of it.

[Goldwater]

I mean, isn't that literally why people voted for him?

[Badger]

Duh.

[Reaganfan]

That's the point.

All these people freaking out over 99% of what Trump is doing never voted for him to begin with.

[TheLeftwardTide]

Yep. And its going to be all the more satisfying when the presidential ranking chart comes out and Obama is green and Trump is bright Red.

What I find interesting is that the New Deal era presidents were all top-tier, whereas the post-Reagan presidents were all average at best.

[TheSaint250]

Yes, and he's doing a horrible job of it.

[Lincoln Republican]

Clearly.

[Badger]

What legacy?

The ACA and Dodd-Frank?

I guess they can't undo making the rather gutsy call to oversee saying "fu#$ you" to Pakistani sovereignty (TOTALLY justified here) and getting Osama.
