And what happened afterwards? Because Obama's failure to make meaningful changes to the average American's life resulted in the Democrats loosing support in huge swaths of the country and gave us Trump.

I'd say if that held true, Obama would have had a difficult time getting re-elected. He got re-elected effortlessly. People were broadly content, though less energized for his re-election bid.

But he was still able to get a second term.

Biden doesn't look like he'll be able to.

Like. You're right, I agree with what you said.

But what gave us trump was running Hillary. We could have gotten an Obama 2.0 that did the same shit as Obama and had two terms, they'd just now be leaving office.
