Erasing The Memory Of Obama Will Be GOP's Top Priority Going Forward.

I would not be surprised if the GOP spends a lot of time trying to erase the accomplishments of Obama as well as the memory. I can hear the Obama bashing becoming more prominent than it is. We have already seen what they are capable of the last 8 years. And we can count on their assaults continuing.

So you won't see any moves to name ANYTHING after Obama. And you will see fierce opposition to anything with his name on it. In fact they will destroy the economy if they can and tell the masses that it was Obama's fault.

God forbid that Trump would win. We would see even more fierce assaults. With Hillary in the White House we will be double down on going after Hillary. A GOP House probably will start hundreds of phony investigations and start impeachment over emails or Benghazi for all we know.

And they won't govern until the US sinks in quicksand. They will want to exact revenge on America if Hillary is elected.

of buildings, bridges and parks to be renamed Reagan so as to ensure President Obama was just a bad dream to them. Their lies are prolific so I hate to see what their future history books say.

If Hillary wins the election, the Rethugs may continue to obstruct, obstruct, obstruct, but I think the country will slowly begin to turn away from the right-wing madness. Progress will be slow, but despite the garbling among right-wing pundits, I think the Rethugs can kiss the White Hoise good-bye.

As outrageously unfair as it may be not to have anything named after him, in the short run, his legacy will be encapsulated in the phrase, "If you seek his monument, look around."
