Guardian - Live Reporting: Reports in its 5.32pm post the following, " Barack Obama has just suffered a devastating blow to his legacy. He failed to hand off the White House to a member of his party, despite his personal popularity. His namesake health care legislation is on the chopping block. Same with his actions on emissions caps, other environmental regulations, immigration reform and more... With a Republican-controlled Congress and White House, no piece of Obama’s legislative or executive legacy would seem to be safe. So that was a gracious speech, too, under the circumstances. "
Lets Get Real:
They were great remarks by a leader on his way out, the question is what will be left of the Obama legacy? One can assume that ObamaCare could get axed, there will be regulation rules that will be thrown out. While President Obama has had a frosty relationship with Putin's Russia it can be expected that Trump will wish for warmer relationship, there could be an agreement to allow Putin and Assad to take out the threat of Daesh in Syria, while Putin might make a move on the Baltic States in between the election and Trump taking over. Thus President Reagan will be the only two President in modern times to hand over to his office to his VP. It shows again that even President Obama is not as great as the Gipper, that is why Reagan is the favorite President of most Republicans and a few Democrats.
