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?
@JohnJHarwood What evidence do you have to support point d?
— RubeWaddell (@WaddellRube) December 27, 2016
Evidence? He don’t need no stinkin’ evidence.
I mean, the same white fear helped elect him but then white fear also helped defeat Democrats. What to do?! @JohnJHarwood

@JohnJHarwood So racist America twice elected a black president but did not vote for his white successor because of racism?
— GDTBTH (@MomFedora) December 27, 2016
Well then why did the same people vote for Obama twice but switch to Trump? https://t.co/cn4I7RU1Zm

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.
@JohnJHarwood is there anything obama did or didn't do that contributed? Or is it all somebody/something else's fault?

@JohnJHarwood you're gonna invoke the race card? You really do suck at your job
— Zach Youngblood (@zcyoungblood) December 27, 2016
You're right John. Everything was out of Obama's control! He couldn't have done anything differently! @JohnJHarwood
— Brad (@brad_dallas) December 27, 2016
@JohnJHarwood Wouldn't have anything to do w/ a series of foreign policy failures & domestic policies that held growth to under 3%, would it

@JohnJHarwood are you using the same political insight and wisdom that predicted a Hillary landslide?

@JohnJHarwood the longer it takes for u to acknowledge reality, the better.
