2008 after the rethugs totally fucked things up Obama had to come in and fixed things

All the major problems of that time, war and financial collapse, were completely due to rethugs. As Obama worked to fix things they did their best to undercut him. Bush screwed up the great economy that came about under Clinton. And Bush got us in unnecessary wars. Now Biden will be handed a huge pile of shit and as he works to fix things the rethugs will do their best to undercut him, even though trump and his party are wholly responsible for the mess.

So many Americans don’t seem to remember things. I hope that after we climb out of the hole that trump has dug, people in the future will remember who was responsible.
