The Worst President Ever...Hint It Isn't Trump

The Worst President in History: The Legacy of Barack Obama - Matt Margolis and Mark Noonan (Bombadier Books)

The Worst President in History: The Legacy of Barack Obama by Matt Margolis and Mark Noonan probably won't set the literary world on fire for it's writing. Where this book scores in a huge way is the utter completeness of this compendium in recapping the staggering number of issues, malfeasance, ineptitude, lies and outright crimes committed by Barack Obama and his administration.

Early on, I labeled Obama's first term as nothing more than Jimmy Carter's missing second term. It didn't take Obama very long to make the Georgia peanut farmer President look like a piker when it came to ineptitude and cluelessness.


Margolis and Noonan literally lay out chapter and verse, running down 200 separate entries, spread over a broad range of categories detailing a litany of examples to illustrate their thesis, all backed up with 124 pages of endnotes citing source materials. One of the striking things as you read through this book is the amount of things the mainstream media never bothered to cover, gave passing coverage to or made excuses for during Obama's White House tenure.

Then add to that a comparison to how utterly apoplectic these same media clowns have been about Donald Trump's Presidency and any hint of alleged wrongdoing, has these clowns shouting impeachment, indictment, treason or worse. When compared to the actual, verifiable things that Obama got away with, make the media outrage laughable at best. While the media asshat brigade deep ends about former CIA head John Brennan being stripped of his top secret clearance as a mythical assault on the First Amendment, Obama's cry real attain on the media barely rated a passing footnote from the elite media. Brennan, a stupid, liberal gas bag is still free to spout his ridiculous bullshit, with or without his security clearance; so the silly story isn't worth the air time it has garnered or the ink spilled.

The frustrating thing about this hefty volume is the unanswered question - why - hen actual crimes have been committed, like the vast list of Hillary Clinton crimes, hasn't there been any prosecutions, pep walks or jailings? Hopefully this handy guide will serve as a clear reminder for DOJ prosecutors. Given that the swamp still is far from drained, I can't any that I am hopeful.
