That could be the case, but putting Obama 8th?

A president who accomplished almost nothing except to drag out a recession for seven years, increase the national debt by more than all previous presidents combined, and turn over much of the Middle East to Islamist insurgents? That one?

Quite obviously, no impartial historian could come to that conclusion, even if placing FDR up there is understandable.
LOL, you’re going to act like you care about the debt while you guys just opened the National Vault for the wealthy? That’s priceless.... no pun intended.

Really? My 2-week net went up by $138. Federal dropped $34 over two weeks.
Yes really and my gross pay didn't change. I'm still making exactly the same amount before taxes.

I would say that his most notable accomplishment was the number of brown children he murdered, and the record breaking amount of whistle blowers he went after.

He was pretty much handed a war he had to deal with...

I highly doubt that Obama would've pursued military action in the middle east had the wheels not already been in motion.

(and let's not pretend that anyone in the GOP cares too much about children getting murdered, or overreaching military endeavors in general)

Oh, I see. Obama didn't want to kill rescue workers and first responders with double-tap drone strikes, he just felt it was his patriotic duty to try and beat Dubya's high score. Gotcha. Good thing he didn't start any wars of his own or anyth---wait.

It is comforting that the Syndicate of Peace is now in charge.
His administration is becoming increasingly involved in conflicts he previously said the U.S. should avoid and is placing more power in the hands of military leaders.

And yet you and others get triggered when I compare him to Obama. :asd:
You mean the Prince of Nobel? The Duke of Drones? The King of Cruise? The Stealth Muslim?

Seems odd that peoples' perspective of war changes based on who's sitting in "the big chair".

Not referring to you in particular here...but there are many who rejoice at the idea that "Trump is going to nuke them there muslims", but then turn around and use that as a point of criticism when discussing his predecessor.

Mr. Trump loves his subjects. They love him. Some love him so much they seem to lose their heads.

Most historians work for the establishment. Hence, they have to reject Trump.
The "establishment"? And why would they have to "reject" Trump?

Some of the Trump apologetics around here are bizarre IMO.

Pres. O. took out Osama Bin Laden. Which GWB couldn't do in 8 years. And is a more historically significant accomplishment than anything Donald Trump has done in 71 years.

Of course that (Osama Bin Laden) is the main thing Obama claimed as an accomplishment, even though the practical benefits were few. And the other thing he claimed as an accomplishment was to have saved General Motors, but that isn't clear anyway since if GM had been allowed to go through bankruptcy and reorganized as was intended, she would likely have emerged in better shape and continued on.

Because he is a traitor to his class and loathed by both parties. But by that he is performing a public service for us plebs.

Nice Mental Gymnastics, but you fail to be actually reasonable it's not by Opinion, they go by facts.

By giving us facts.

You got me. I was a History Major. My diploma says "Welcome to the Establishment"
Same here. But I'm double establishment because of my double major (political science).
