Here’s a short list of the many scandals Team Obama thinks it can make America forget:

The great “stimulus” heist: Obama seems to think nobody will remember he grabbed almost a TRILLION $ for “stimulus” spending, created virtually

2) ZERO private-sector jobs, allowed a great deal of the money to vanish into thin air, spent the rest of his presidency complaining that he needed hundreds of billions more to repair roads/bridges.

Vast sums of taxpayer money were wasted on foolish projects that came close to

3) #KeynesianEconomicSatire of hiring some people to dig holes, others to fill them in.

Americans mostly ended up footing the bill for was army of gov't jobs, a lavish network of slush funds for the DNC & its union allies.

4) We’re supposed to forget about all that because years later, Obama’s weak economy finally dragged itself to something like normal “official” employment levels… with the U.S. national debt doubled, our workforce rate reduced to Carter-era lows.

5) Operation Fast and Furious: Obama administration’s insane program to use American gun dealers/straw purchasers to arm Mexican drug lords, is a scandal w/huge body count, prominently incl Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry/ Immigration/Customs Enforcement Agent Jamie Zapata, plus

6) 100's of Mexican citizens.
...media would have dogged Republican president w/out respite, especially when it became clear HIS AG was putting political spin ahead of accountability/safety of American people. Remember, AG Holder escaped perjury charges by claiming he didn’t know

7) what his own subordinates were doing...

But this was Obama, so the MEDIA downplayed Fast/Furious news… to the point where viewers of NBC News learned about the scandal for the first time when Holder was on the verge of being held in contempt by Congress for it.
More sinister

8) take on Fast/Furious is that Obama admin wanted to create gun crimes in Mexico so they could complain about lax regs on American gun sales –“for purposes of creating narrative that they could use in America to thwart our 2nd Amendment constitutional rights...

Holder: 1st

9) sitting member of a president’s cabinet in the history of the USA to be held in contempt of Congress.

ObamaCare: Everything about ObamaCare is a scandal, from Obama's incessant lies about keeping your old plan if you liked it/to Pelosi’s “we need to pass it to find out what’s

10) in it” dereliction of Congressional duty.

ObamaCare is a SCAM, pure/simple – sold on false pretenses by people who knew it wasn’t going to work the way they promised. It doesn’t feel right to dismiss it as a “failed” scheme when so much of the FAILURE WAS INTENTIONAL.

11) The bill was so sloppily crafted that Demrats were basically signing blank sheets of paper when they rushed it through Congress in a foul-smelling cloud of back-room deals. ObamaCare designers precipitated a constitutional crisis by forgetting they left in a provision to

12) CUT SUBSIDIES cut subsidies for states that didn’t set up health-care exchanges–provision that would have killed entire program stone-dead 2 years ago, if it had been enforced as written.

*** #SCOTUS REWROTE ObamaCare on the fly 2X to keep it alive, which is a scandal in/of

13) itself. Obama delayed/rewrote the law so often it was IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP TRACI of CHANGES, CUTTING CONGRESS OUT of the loop completely. (Actually, someone did keep careful track of them, and the tally was up to 70 distinct changes by January 2016.)

That made some of Obama’s

14) REWITTEN MANDATES/deadlines BLATANTLY ILLEGAL – but then, Affordable Care Act isn’t really a “law” in the sense American gov't understood the term. In practice entirely new, an enabling act that gave the EXECUTIVE UNLIMITED POWER to do whatever it thought necessary to keep

15) the system running. If subverting the American system of government isn’t a scandal, what is?

And let’s not forget the scandal of ObamaCare’s disastrous launch, foisted on American people even though its designers knew it had severe flaws – the billion-dollar website cost

16) another billion dollars to fix after it crashed, accompanied by a constellation of state exchanges that blew up like Roman candles of bureaucratic incompetence. Let us not forget the absolute zero accountability for this disaster, mismanaged by everyone...

17) Spying on journalists: ..... Holder suffered temp amnesia/forgot to tell Congress that he signed off on the request to wiretap Rosen while he was testifying under oath.

IRS scandal: selective targeting of conservative groups by politicized I.R.S was a scandal grenade Dems

18) /their media pals somehow managed to smother, even though the story began w/IRS admitting wrongdoing.

...multiple state-of-the-art hard drives failed, were instantly SHREDDED instead of being subjected to data recovery procedures.

20) citizens feel max pain – using “Barry-cades” to keep war veterans away from their memorials, to releasing illegal alien criminals from detention centers.
