Ah, no attempt to actually address my point ... just a personal shot.
If you want a discussion you're going to have to carry your end of it. Sorry if you don't like the questions, but quite frankly, this idea that Obama was working towards Communism/Marxism in America is bereft of evidence and so out of alignment with reality that it betrays on your part strong cognitive filters.
You may not recognize them, but they're evident to those of us on the outside looking in.
I'm writing this as a registered Libertarian who voted for Johnson. You want to call me biased now?

I mean, I have to see his face more than I would have if he had not been elected, so I would say it's had a pretty negative impact on my life. My in-laws worry about the state of the country we live in more than they would have if he had not been elected. We have to consider waiting longer than we initially planned to buy a house, in case he gets impeached and shit hits the fan or shit just hits the fan anyway. He's unstable, so we want to wait and see what happens. Let's see, what else? Oh, a man told me he wouldn't blame people for grabbing me by the pussy to check to see if I'm a man because he was emulating and supporting Trump while I was not. In my experience, there is a tangible difference between the way my Trump supporter loved ones used to speak to me and the way they speak to me now, even though they have known I'm Independent for many years. I'm called a hater, stupid, sheep, etc. I never called any of them names, and they never did before, so I just have to assume it's because Trump speaks like a disrespectful jackass and they worship him, so . . .
TLDR; fuck Trump.

Shell B, the very first bill he signed made the insurance on FHA Mortgage loans more expensive, raising the cost for first time homebuyers. Trust a greedy corporate asshat to do right by the American people. That makes sense.

And the poor too. The only class benefiting from the GOP and Trump presidency will be the top, and we will all pay for it the longer they are in power.

Because people are responsible for everything that happens to them.

I honestly don't think Trump cares if the bills he signs are good or bad.
So if pubbies decided to privatize medicaid and SSI, he would sign it if the establishment he railed against gave him a cookie and patted him on the head.

Put myself through school. $18,000 in student loans might be a drop in the bucket to some, but when the only job I could find in my field pays federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour and you only get your commission IF you make your SPH(Service per hour) goals, it makes me think I'm better off not working. I can't live off of what I'm making and no one else will hire me given my shitty custody schedule.
Why did I even bother going into debt like this? I could have gotten hired at Rutters for $10 an hour to start
