As evidenced by the past 7.5 years, in comparison to the 8 years prior to that, the Republicans have proven themselves incapable of managing anything effectively. They do not have the leadership to justify their presence in Washington.
Maybe you need to look at the changes
Clinton made when in office that later led to the problems we have today. Seldom do you pass a legislation and two days later it changes things. There is a period before things kick in. Just like how it took the 8 years of
Clinton leadership before a Recession hit as he left office. Just like
Clinton avoiding confronting Al Qaeda which escalated to 911.
Just like his vetoing drilling for oil, and now we have a backlash in Supply and demand. Just like him allowing the merger of oil companies.
Just like his lack of any kind of energy plan to help us in the future. Just like him not doing anything about illegal immigrants.
Look at his dealings with China and now how that outsourcing and relationship is coming back to haunt us.
Look at how he dealt with North Korea and how that is now coming back to haunt us.
What really did
Clinton ever do? Except scoot in and take credit for any good economics that were set in place years before with Reagan and GB 1?
Clinton also had a Republican congress that was proactive in making changes in Washington, and Yea I know the republican congress with Bush lost sight of that goal, and they paid for it in losing seats. But look how bad and how little got done once the Democrats got control 2 years ago! Sure the Republican Congress under Bush was a bad one, but the Democrat congress under Bush has been a worse one!
The reality is the effectiveness of a President can be more seen in the years that follow his term than the actual years he served. So you Libs that do not like what is happening now need to go back and look at
Clinton and see how much of it resulted from decisions he made while in office.
Another example is the economic boost
Clinton received while in office due to the fact that Reagan ended the cold war. No more cold war allowed
Clinton to cut military spending. If Reagan would not have did his job then
Clinton would have had a hard time in office, much like how
Clinton did not do his job and now Bush is having a harder time.
