Pat Trieweiler: Obama declares war on GOP already
I thought President Obama was going to extend an olive branch to the new Congress and Senate after the midterms? Instead, he has declared war on them. The new class hasn’t even been sworn in yet, and the president says he will use executive action on immigration reform if the lawmakers don’t quickly act on it. God save the King!
After so many of his party lawmakers were torched in the midterms, he might find it hard to find loyal subjects. Maybe it’s time for the President to learn some new words like cooperation and bipartisanship. Obama should do a little meet and greet with the new Congress, and hit the links with the house speaker before declaring political warfare.
Acting like a King doesn’t play well in the USA, especially when you’re a lame duck.
