Oh yes, i miss the good old days When ISIS controlled 1/3 of the Middle East. When nato countries refused to pony up. When unemployment was much higher Before the pandemic. When the embassy was in televiv. When irenaean generals could get away with murder and did. When China could do whatever they want Regarding trade laws. The old nafta when American companies could pay Mexican workers $3 an hour instead of the now $16 now they have to make which may cause a middle class that after 25 years Nafta failed to do. Yes I do remember the good old days and president's made dam share the status quo was good enough.

Given by president Obama with a smile and humor made it a joy to watch!

He left the White House a multi-millionaire and the country in great debt. He started nuclear arms race #2 with Russia. He did nothing effective to deal with the coming climate catastrophes. If there were any justice, he would be in a Hague prison cell with G.W.B. for company.
