When Donald Trump secured the Republican nomination, Barack Obama probably thought that his legacy was secure. The man everyone said could not win was going up against Hillary Clinton, the woman who pledged to keep Obama’s legacy intact.
Unfortunately for Obama, almost everyone got it wrong. Donald Trump won big in November, and now eight years of Obama-era regulations are set to be dismantled under the new president-elect.
But Obama isn’t giving up. Despite having warned Trump to not over-use executive orders, the lame duck president is now using all the power at his disposal to keep Trump from undoing his fragile legacy.
Obama’s latest last-minute power-grab has to do with offshore drilling. Trump may have campaigned on a promise to make America more energy independent, but if Obama gets his way, he may not be able to.
See how he’s trying to keep Trump from drilling for oil off the American coastline on the next page:
Such a good president! To bad the Republicans couldn’t stand a Black President in the White House.. Shame On them! Shame on all biggets!
All should have watched the Charlie rose show tonight..
Pretty soon he’s going to start stomping his feet. Look at me, LOOK AT MEEEEEE!!!!

Old news…*yawn*
The only thing permanent in life is death. Obama is an idiot. If he is no longer in charge he cannot enforce any such b******t.
Well stated. I still do not understand why some of my well educated friends still see him as a great leader?
