Decimated Democrats

There has been a lot of talk lately about Obama's legacy. Any time a presidency is in its waning weeks, there is always much discussion about what a president will be remembered for. Obama's legacy can be summed up in one simple word... DESTRUCTION! Don't just take my word for it. Check out the information below from the New York Post:

The New York Post reports:
Obama’s legacy is a devastated Democratic Party
As President Obama concludes his reign of error, his party is smaller, weaker and ricketier than it has been since at least the 1940s. Behold the tremendous power that Democrats have frittered away — from January 2009 through the aftermath of Election Day — thanks to Obama and his ideas:
• Democrats surrendered the White House to political neophyte Donald J. Trump.
• US Senate seats slipped from 55 to 46, down 16 percent.
• US House seats fell from 256 to 194, down 24 percent.
• Democrats ran the Senate and House in 2009. Next year, they will control neither.
• Governorships slid from 28 to 16, down 43 percent.
• State legislatures (both chambers) plunged from 27 to 14, down 48 percent
Trifectas (states with Democrat governors and both legislative chambers) cratered from 17 to 6, down 65 percent.

Oh, and don't forget Obamacare. That little gem was SUCH a good idea.
