Even though his presidency and legacy have faced significant rejection, evident in opinion polls indicating him as one of the lowest-rated presidents, and the defeat of his favored successor Kamala Harris in the recent elections, his time in office remains marked by a remarkable string of failures. Inflation has adversely impacted the livelihoods of ordinary citizens, turning grocery shopping into a distressing ordeal, while the younger generation struggles with soaring interest rates and the exorbitant cost of living, diminishing their aspirations of homeownership and achieving the American Dream. Simultaneously, conflicts persist worldwide, further clouding his time in power.
There is almost nothing good that he leaves his successor, Donald Trump.
Yet he continues in his final days to flail away at convincing us that somehow his presidency was a success.
His attempt to salvage his tarnished reputation continues, as seen in a recent appearance alongside Lawrence O’Donnell, known for his lack of substance as a cable news host. These efforts follow a desolate and sobering farewell speech delivered by the outgoing president, further emphasizing the dismal state of his leadership and its lasting impact.
