In some ways, Trump is just going to continue the trend: by continuing the norm-smashing behaviour that Republicans used in opposition.

In the long run, however much damage we come through, Obama's vision is the one that's going to be left standing. It's a question of how much pain and suffering America has to endure in the meantime.

Liberals tend to romanticize the past, past leaders' failures.

Barack Obama is an intellectual.

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

Barack Obama knows a lot about a lot of things.
