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.

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

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

Barack Obama is an intellectual.
