This friggin’ guy:

for those making silly argument that Obama hurt Democratic Party: last 5 presidents have left both houses of Congress in opposition hands

CNBC’s John Harwood just can’t fathom the notion that Barack Obama had anything to with the Democrats getting trounced on Election Day. So he’s laying down the truth about what really happened:

drivers of D casualties under Obama: a) depth of financial crisis/Great Recession b) accumulated angst over 30-year income stagnation 1/2

drivers of D casualties under Obama: c) effective/unified R opposition, esp to ACA; d) Obama's race amid white fear of cultural change 2/2

“White fear,” eh?

What evidence do you have to support point d?

Evidence? He don’t need no stinkin’ evidence.

Oddly enough, Harwood doesn’t seem to have an answer to that question. But as far as he’s concerned, he doesn’t need one. He’s got an agenda to push, and he’ll push it, come hell or high water, facts and reality be damned.
