Let's ignore the fact he was left a brutal mess that was left behind by the last republican administration.
Let me ask you all something? Do you know who is in control of congress and what congresses approval rating is? It's because the republican led congress has been sitting on their asses with more than 1 attempt to shut government down. And here we gave them a thumbs up for their obstructionist government.
If Carter survived for a 2nd term we might not even be in the middle east fighting over oil.
Regan ****ed this country for decades with trickle down economics and continued reliance on fossil fuels.
You must be confused Obama first term Democrats owned the Senate and the House. How they where able to bail out the banks and pass Obama care. Both completely terrible things for the country. Also senate Democrats did what's called the nuclear option. Which took away alot of the minority powers away from blocking presidential appointment. Obama failed at being a president plan and simple. The excuse of Republicans blocking him is non sense in his first term.
