Obama took 20 million people from the category of ignorables and put them into the category of unignorables. No one had to do anything for these 20 million people because they were outside the system. Now they're inside the system. Taking away their health care imposes all kind of political pain. We don't know the outcome, but every passing day it show how difficult it is for Trump to deprive them of what they now have.

At best, Trumpism will be a more right-wing version of the same old Republican Party.

Republicans fighting back against changes Obama made means those changes are important, as with most of the major progress in American history.

Liberals will only support you after you're gone.

Trump is what Obama critics think Obama is: Someone who's focused on symbolism rather than substance.

Barack Obama is extremely smart.

President Obama is so much smarter and a better communicator than members of Congress in either party. The contrast, side by side, is almost ridiculous.
