- Of course 8 years of Obama-Biden created Trump, that's undeniable - he didn't magic up out of nowhere. Last 4 consecutive elections have been change elections, voters asking for change, rejecting the status-quo, and still not getting it. If Obama didn't choose Hilary to continue the Neoliberal Project, a reality-tv star DC outsider, who listened to Americans rejecting the TPP, NAFTA and globalism, wouldn't have won office.
Probably not just 8 years of Obama/Biden but they were the straw that broke the camels back.
I believe the american voter was looking for a change from the "established" political leadership they had been saddled with for so long and Trump offered that. So, Yes, Trump is in office because of the likes of Obama. I also think the american voter got more than they bargained for when they elected Donald Trump.
I have friends in the US and they see Trump as the right person for the job. I'm not sure I agree with them but he is their President not mine.
Interestingly we heard all about Trump sending in the troops to a couple of places to guard Federal property but we are hearing nothing about the likes of this Portland Riots
You have to wonder about the balance in the reporting we see in this country.
