In July 2009, the Democrats (and two independents that caucused with them) had the magical 60-seat, filibuster-proof Senate majority after Al Franken got sworn in, and the Senate was in GOP hands after 2014.
>>541162161White racism
>>541162285ContdThe white racists made such a hue and cry about Obamacare and muh debtLook where the debt is nowLook at the orange king spending like crazy nowAnd not a peep
The same way Trump is blowing it. They got elected on a "fix the thingsfucking society" platform and then proceeded to keep doing what the deep state wanted them to.
Boomers who watch Fox news were unironically convinced that Obama was the anti-christ. The mindbreaking he caused to the right during the 2010s needs to be studied.
Back then people thought forever war in the middle east was a bad thing. They voted for Obama because they thought he would end the wars and solve inequality. These are no longer deal breakers for miggers today, but back then people had "hope" and they were disappointed.
>>541162161He came into office promising grandiose change (and critically mass investment in the economy to combat what was at the time the largest recession since the Great Depression) and ultimately only offered peace meal neo-liberal reforms.The biggest change in most peoples day to day life after the first two years of Obama term was there health insurance premiums became a bit higher.Some people who previously didn’t have health insurance now did, SOME people who were out of work now had a job, but if you were the median American the housing market was still just as dicey to you, the threat of losing your job and not being able to find another one was still very real, and the economy writ large was still in the shiter so your retirement was now uncertain.Obamas real problem from an economic perspective was he was unwilling to shit or get off the pot.Many Americans saw the financial crisis as a fundamental refutation of Reaganomics and with it 30 years of economic orthodoxy but Obama himself was no Keynesian.In his defense doing the sort of broad economic stimulus that would have been needed to jump start the economy probably would have caused significant inflation but as it was his”middle ground” position on stimulus really served only to increase the deficit with most economists determining the additional spending had little to no effect on the over all economy; a fact the republicans would then go on to beat Obama over the head with in the midterms.
>>541162362yeah obama really fucked up trying to build a permanent one party state huh? oh you thought we forgot about that. nice try libtard
>>541162362>They were so irrational about Obama, unlike us with TrumpSure.
>>541162362Fox News was calling Obama the anti-Christ in 2007 dude.If that worked on its own he never would have gotten elected.What fucked him over was largely shitting the bed on the economy and deciding to focus on healthcare in a time when 15 million Americans were out of work.He would have done better honestly killing two birds with one stone and pushing through massive investments in green energy which would given people millions of jobs in the process.>>541162375This was a factor but the war was far from peoples primary concern in the 2010 midterms.
>>541162161glenn beck and john boehner crying on tvfox news having an absolute meltdown putting fearporn 24/7 saying we were now in some technocratic authoritarian state. (i.e. "death panels")mobilizing retarded boomers in the form of the "tea party" to roadblock any meaningful progress for younger generations
>>541162350Obamacare still is garbage you retarded shitskin.Dont claim to know how america works you low iq filth.
>>541163672More Republicans use Obamacare than Democrats
>>541162161He tried to cut Social Security with Simpson-Bowles then passed the GOP 1993 John Chafee - Romneycare neocon healthcare plan instead of the universal healthcare he campaigned on.
>>541163749They are forced to you retarded fucker.
>>541162161Tan suit.
>>541162161he didn't actually do anything
>>541163339Not a primary concern, no. But people dumped all their hopes and dreams on this man and primed themselves for disappointment. I have heard white people blame Obama for not ending racism. When the median voter doesn't get what they want from the magic lamp, they check out again.
>>541162285>>541162350Your post smells and your skin reminds everybody of feces. Did I mention you stink? Nobody is taking you seriously lmao. Leave. There are about 1 billion jeets [shudders in disgust], you would think that they would have their own 4ch like Russia or Japan has. You hate us so much yet you use our language, our technology and our cultural spaces.Nobody wants you here, on earth. Not just this place, I mean in general. And you know I am right.
>>541163809They are forced to because they are poor white trash with no other options. Yes, that's what it's for.
>>541162161No public option
Nearly every problem in this country today can be traced back to Obama-era policies.
>>541162161>How did Obama blow it so bad?White Republicans got mad that a black man tried to give them affordable healthcare.
>>541163111>yeah obama really fucked up trying to build a permanent one party state huh?Kinda like Trump is now, windowlicker?
>>541162161Niggers start getting a bunch of government jobs and everyone noticed the sudden decline. Those laws are still getting niggers hired.
>>541165176sudden?
>>541162350obamacare was unconstitutionaland unconstitutionally passedyou're aware that SCOTUS cant rewrite a law after Congress passes it, right?
>>541162362one didnt need to watch fox news to understand that obama did a whole bunch of unconstitutional shit and was a glownigger
>>541162161>voted in for "hope and change">bails out banks and auto companies with taxpayer money as right/left are united against doing that>runs on ending sandbox wars, adds more troops and bombs even more countries >obliterates used car market>hands Americans over to insurance companies>cancels Constellation program, forcing NASA to pay Russia for rides to ISS for 9 fucking yearsTake your pick
>>541166751Corporations started hiring indians and niggers around this time too and fraud visas would get approved
>>541163807>then passed the GOP 1993 John Chafee - Romneycare neocon healthcare plan instead of the universal healthcare he campaigned on.you left out the part about realizing muh universal healthcare is unconstitutional without an amendment enumerating the powereven what was passed was not even constitutionalbut they all knew getting an amendment passed for this had as much chance to work as telling a 4 year old to go free solo El Capitan in the rain and you'll give him a cookie when he reaches the top
>>541164668>tried to give them affordable healthcare.its amazing that there's tards out there that believe thistards this tarded probably dont even know about Big Mike's role as a healthcare executive for a chain of hospitals who would benefit from it
>>541162161Joe Lieberman was a bitch and always voted with the side that wasn't in power to maintain the filibuster.
>>541166878I remember the initial waves of jeet invasion in the year 2000those fuckers smelled so bad I lined my desk with air fresheners and would periodically turn around and hose a massive cloud of Lysol in their directionthey never did understand why I was doing this
>>541167093That is at least consistent. McCain and him were about the only ones that took a stand and stuck with it. The others kept changing their tune based on if they were in power at the time on not. The filibuster always goes from a "racist relic of the past" with Dems in control to "the cooling saucer of democracy" right now with Trump in power. GOP Senators are the same. Some of these Senators who've been there for decades, you can literally see them flip-flop on it like a half dozen times... their party is out of power "save the filibuster!," their party wins "abolish it now!"
>>541167297One day some party is going to be short-sighted enough to actually abolish the filibuster, and I don't care if it's the GOP or Democrats, I hope they get hoisted by their petard on it hard. That the other party sweeps them the following election and passes everything they hate. It will be what they deserve.
>>541167370If they ever did that they'd stack the court and cancel any future elections. Who would or could stop them at that point?
>>541166995>muh universal healthcare is unconstitutional without an amendment enumerating the powersounds like the constitution needs to be examined in terms of what is laid out for the public health. does the constitution mandate that we must participate in an expensive private-dominated marketplace to even have access to healthcare?
>>541162362The simping people did just because he was a half-nigger should be studied too, especially after he repeatedly sold out to liberal globalists. I started to gain a little respect for libertarians when they called out Obama for increasing state overreach but they ultimately do nothing, losing whatever respect they gained and losing even more. People are lemmings of the worst kind, I say destroy all politicians and lobbyists, let the cards fall where they may.
>>541162161Unironically, his mistake was that be still believed in bipartisanship. He had the ability to force through whatever healthcare and immigration policies he wanted against the republicans will, but wanted both parties to agree on a solution so that it could be long-term sustainable. This proved to be a mistake. By the time that Obama realized that the republicans would never work with him for any reason, on any policy, no matter what? His advantage had already been lost.The Obama years were when it became established that the republican party was no longer willing to engage in governance, only subjugation. If they can't get what they want no one is allowed to have anything.
>>541167914>does the constitution mandate that we must participate in an expensive private-dominated marketplace to even have access to healthcare?the constitution says that all powers not enumerated are remanded to the statesdo they not teach you kids what the fucking 10th amendment is or what it means?
>>541169182that's a retarded way to say>he realized that his healthcare ideas were unconstitutional and required an amendment to lawfully have the powers, and they all knew the bar was so high for an amendment there's no point in even trying
>>541162161>Al FrankenThis guy? He was never a Real Democrat™.
>>541169404If it sounds like thats a retarded way to say it, thats because thats not what I said. You needing to retreat to the safety of a completely different conversation has nothing to do with the topic at hand.
>>541169926>O-Obama didnt blow it because his main thing he ran on was completely unconstitutionalcope, seethe, dilatebut yeah, its probably moreso all the other illegal things he did
>>541162362Zoomers who watch Tiktok were unironically convinced that Trump was the anti-christ. The mindbreaking he caused to the left during the 2020s needs to be studied.
>>541163946Lmao that's still his two scoops moment> two new wars> shitty economy> abysmal race relations> scandal after scandal after scandalHE WORE A TAN SUIT
>>541162350You realize that current debt levels are a direct result of Obamacare passing, thus proving its critics absolutely right, right?
>>541162161but he didn't?
>>541170454>compares Obama’s 8 year total to an understated amount for Trump’s first term. >Facts don’t care about vibesWhat a ridiculous retard you are.
>>541163749you mean Medicaid (with a coat of paint over it)
>>541170364Yes and no. The current debt levels are because of the *compromised* Obamacare that got passed. The original version wouldn't have included private insurance companies as middlemen. Republicans arguing to continue to include the insurance companies meant that coverage was included but COSTS were not reduced, the insurance companies were still allowed to jack up prices and extract people's money for their profits.So yes, Obamacare inflated the debt. But it only inflated the debt because the Republicans intentionally included poison pills to try and kill the bill and make it as nonfunctional as possible so they could claim victory from the very problems they caused. It didn't work out in the long term, leaving everyone holding the shittiest version of the bill that could exist and its consequences. Basically the same as not wanting to eat a pizza so you take a giant shit in the middle of it so everyone will be forced to eat something else, but then you end up eating the pizza anyway and have no one to blame but yourself for the shit all over it.
>>541162161meanwhile he gets a fat pension every year and 24/7 protection
Do you want the actual answer, or the one that fits your narrative?1 -The Senate GOP, led by the now-dying turtle man, did everything to obstruct Obama from DAY 1. They said out loud that was their strategy.2 -The 60 seat majority was only for a year and a half, and Joe FUCKING Liberman was a democrat in name only and sold out the public insurance option to please his corporate overlords from the healthcare lobby. Without a robust public option, Obamacare didn't help nearly as many people as easily or as much as it should have. Even then, the GOP tried to killed a weakened Obamacare for YEARS, well into the first Trump administration. Rot in hell, Joe Liberman, you dead kike bastard.-Before the crash in 2008, America was doing pretty god damn awesome. Unless you were in a shitty rust belt state addicted to heroin, things were going great. The wealthy corpos, shitting their pants after Obama was elected, got to work riling up those druggie rednecks left behind by (CORPORATE DRIVEN!) international manufacturing outsourcing, and astro-turfed the Tea Party into existence with culture war bullshit, which turned into MAGA, and you know the fucking story from there-Obama had to spend the first half of his team dealing with the fallout of the 2008 financial crisis, which is another example of a democrat president cleaning up a republican mess. Everyone hated the bank bailouts (they actually worked - although we really should have jailed a few bankers to make an example out of them)All this meant that the window for Obama to do actual fundamental reform was extremely short. It fucking sucked.
>>541170454for the 1000000000000000000000000th fucking timeObama REDEFINED turn-aways at the border as DEPORTATIONS
>>541166751Bush was president when the bank bailout passed, you nitwit. Obama passed a stimulus bill that funded infrastructure projects. >Endless warsWho started those wars, dummy?
>>541162161Nigger.
>>541170758Republicans pushed for that by voting 100% against the bill as it was passed, and no republican votes were required? That’s why?Seriously, kys
>>541163043What's your take on the legalization of propaganda during his term?
>>541162161I’ve asked many times, since s Obama had full control and could have done every lefty dream he wanted, why didn’t he do jack shit?Shows exactly how rigged the entire thing is. If you put one of those funny little socialist goons running in Obama’s place, the nation would have transformed overnight. But it didn’t. Why is that?
>>541162161Because he was the one person on earth actually dumb enough to believe the team of rivals west wing bullshit.
Democrat and Republicans hated Obamacare. For Republicans it was existential. For Democrats, they were sold on Medicare for all, or at least a public option. Instead they got a program written to make insurance companies even more money. His Presidential campaign was a bait and switch.
Most peoples' answers never seem to address what exactly the Tea Party was expected to do better. You got some reforms (of which a few were pretty good) with just a two year window vs doubling down on proto-miggerism.
>>541170364The total debt contribution of Obamacare from the time of its enactment up until now including all its programs and sub programs is 1.5 TrillionWhere is 1.5 Trillion and where is 40 TrillionThe main reason that Obamacare is disliked is because it was enacted by a black President
>>541170758the current debt levels are because NO ONE has ever curbed>military spending>nigger welfare programs>the Washington / govt racket as a wholeover the last 70 yearsOnly Clinton cut military spending.And then went and sold our tech to China.And gave away our wealth to NAFTA.
>>541170758>the current debt levels from obamacare are because they couldnt make it 100% unconstitutional, only half unconstitutionalwhat a dumb faggot
>>541171705nobody gives a fuck about your niggerFree healthcare in this country (with all the parasites & unhealthy lifestyles) is another welfare program
>>541170896>Joe FUCKING Liberman was a democrat in name only and sold out the public insurance option to please his corporate overlords from the healthcare lobby.the public option would have required an amendment and the knew goddamned well that was not ever going to happen
Remember Rick Santelli ranting every day about Obama and muh debtWhere is that racist asshoie now with TrumpThat is right. He now SUPPORTs Trump's policies
>>541170947reminder that Obama didnt do a goddamned thing to the perps of 2008
>>541171705gtfoh, they had to lie that the 10 year costs were going to be under 1 trillion and that was never real
>>541162161because you can play musical chairs as much as you want higher management stays the same
>>541169309yeah it needs to be amended and those powers enumerated. if i get relocated for a job that has shit healthcare i shouldnt be stuck with only private fuck-me-in-the-ass options that are available in that state. take off the powdered wig, faggot
>>541171770Then shouldn't something be done about those unhealthy lifestylesThat is the problem then not affordable healthcare
>>541167060>Big MikeIf you genuinely believe Michelle Obama was born male, you're too far gone for me to even attempt engaging you in conversation.
>>541162161He came in saying he was going to do something good and just ended up bailing out the banks and in no way held the bankers who fucked in the economy accountable for what they did
>>5411718751.5 trillion is the total estimated cost of Obamacare from the day it was enacted up to nowDon't believe me, go ask your favorite AI
>>541171889you could have done this back thenoh wait, that's right, there was no fucking chance it was happening because the States have a say in itgo to fucking europe if you want to pay for other people's healthcare
He completely mindbroke all the white boomers who thought they'd die before they saw a black president and they still haven't recovered to this day
>>541162161>Notice moments where both parties had unassailable majority and could actually pass their alleged platform.>Majority just claims the minority somehow stopped them, with magic.>Retarded golem eats up the excuse, instead of identifying it as the shitty kabbalah game that it is.Politics is strictly about manufacturing consent, which you gave when you saw your party not passing what you wanted, and instead passed the same uniparty shit that has been getting passed since mossad murdered JFK.

>>541166995Medicare already exists faggot. Its constitutionality has been tested.
>>541162161Being Treyvon Martin's absentee father.>>541162362Similar to the mind breaking of the left during Trump amirite? Not saying I agree with Trump since he revealed he was a bigger Netanyahu dick sucker than Obama, but it really is just a double headed wyrm eating us from both sides of the aisles.
>>541172668Similar in terms of how much one side hates the other, perhaps. But Trump has consistently proven every criticism of him 100% correct. He really is as corrupt, stupid, and shortsighted as we were warned. His trade war didn't work, DOGE didn't work, the War in Iran has made us an international joke and the only reason it hasn't caused a global recession already is were are burning through our oil reserves to stall for time.
>>541171890no shit rajeeshTell the niggers & white trash to stop frying EVERYTHING
>>541163339>>pushing through massive investments in green energyYou mean like all those shovel ready jobs that never fucking appeared and only seemed to line the pockets of his donors and people who sucked his asshole and called it a frosty?Yeah bro, as a young man I was eagerly waiting for ANYTHING to come along but by that time construction and carpentry as a whole were so inundated with non english speaking illegals working for five dollars an hour combined with aforementioned grift and graft that its a wonder I didn't kill myself.>>541170947Infrastructure. Right, thats why everything is falling apart. See above with the ass suckery.
>>541172626>Medicare is constitutional because it falls under Congress's power to tax and spend for the general welfarethe general welfare clause was an abomination and if the founders ever knew how much it was going to be abused, it would have been stricken from the draft versionsthis is the same trannyfaggot reasoning used for Social Security>its a tax, so we can tax you for it
>>541172855why do plebbitors visit this place?
>>541167708They don't even need to do that. They'd just have a judge somewhere declare it Wrongthink and it would be held up in the courts long enough for it to never be enacted because guess what, its the same jew stomping on us with one red boot and one blue boot.
>>541162285POOINLOOJEET
>>541170896>>astro-turfed the Tea Party into existence with culture war bullshitBecause the culture war isn't a real thing, amirite?I agree though, they should have jailed the bankers and any politicians found to be in their pocket. If there is even the appearance of racism regular folks get fired, but politicians get a free pass due to "Reasonable doubt" as to whether or not they weren't wiping their asses with hundred dollar bills and stock options. (Protip: Of course they are to this day.)
>>5411621612008 Great Recession. No matter what people say Americans never recovered from it though we've had a couple recessions since to compound the issue.
>>541171890>>Then shouldn't something be done about those unhealthy lifestylesYes, if they want federal money that costs tax payers then they should get their tubes tied. We all know its majority women who couldn't and still can't keep their legs shut having kids in an attempt to entrap themselves a man into paying for their lifestyle or just plain ignorant to the ability to take care of yourselves due tot he fact that they were farm raised government attack dogs to be used against the rest of us every time someone brings up responsibility for your own actions instead of dragging everyone else trying to keep their heads above water and drowning all of us in not just caring for your unwanted children but also having to hear you bitch and howl about how superior you are to everyone around you.Each day. Soon, you nigger Indian.
>>541172032AI literally has to be policed so it doesn't turn racist with the obscene amount of data that points towards niggers and browns being a net loss on society due to their own lack of responsibility for anything and their desire to leech off of someone else in order to survive in an environment that would see them without heads were it not for kike lawfare and state oppression.
>>541173431I honestly dont even know what you are talking about m8Indians in the USA are mostly high achieversAnd don't depend that much on federal welfareStop being deiusional
>>541172855Lets not quibble, his trade war died on the vine mostly due to the courts deciding that he doesn't have control over the tarriff it costs too much of the wrong people too much money. He is indeed a corrupt shitheel who sucks jew dick, and is in fact a jew himself.Doge could never work with the plethora of leftist judges putting stays and holding up every single snip of funds via kike lawfare to basically just hold the line until the left can steal elections again. And the left won't allow an independent investigation into voter fraud because why would you? Lets instead waste our money sending billions overseas for gay rights and tranny museums. Every good thing Trump wanted to do, like removing illegals, stopping H-1b, Building the wall, stopping immigration from shitholes like haiti and somalia and etc, etc. Held up by activist judges. Don't pretend otherwise. I think maybe the biggest victory was the removal of Temporary stays from shitholes and even then it was all an excuse to get cameras and data centers everywhere just in time for the democrats to get back into office and use them to put the boot down on anyone who steps out of the line on programmed genocide.
>>541170896Sounds like a lot of gay cope
>>541170947>Who started those wars, dummy?That retard Dubya, then Obama ran on ending them. Then he didn't, and instead bombed several other countries and helped destabilize Libya into the open-air slave market failed state it is today.You partisan FAGGOT, you're incapable of escaping the fake red/blue team nonsense, this is probably because you're low IQ.
Obama had the opportunity of a lifetime to hang every kike banker due to the financial crisis, and he didn't.
