In 2016, CNN Money warned, “A Trump win would sink stocks.” Nope. Pelosi warned that Trump’s tax cuts were mere “crumbs” that would amount to nothing. Nope. Hollywood celebrities warned about the significant possibility of global thermonuclear war. Nope. Democrats promised a dystopian hellscape. Instead, they got an economy so good that the New York Times ran a piece headlined “We Ran Out of Words to Describe How Good the Jobs Numbers Are.”Meanwhile Obama recedes, in the popular mind, to a historic and photogenic, but ultimately ineffectual place-holder in the 230 year string of presidencies. As it stands now, he will be known for who he was instead of for what he did.
If it can be shown, beyond a reasonable doubt, that Obama was complicit in spying on the Trump campaign, perhaps like Richard Nixon he will be known for what he did wrong.
