      That might not be wrong though? Plenty of presidents will sign a law that only goes into affect in so many years.

        We’d need to know the exact change being referenced. There are lots of couldas. Don’t get me wrong, I agree that it’s possible, but there’s not much to discuss without more info.

            Unilaterally? No, nothing Trump couldn’t have changed with the stroke of a pen. Could Congress have? Sure. Did they in this case? Who knows. Is Obama specifically to blame? Very unlikely.

              Unilaterally? No nothings like that, but thats how laws work. And another things laws tend to do is give a window of correction to abide by such laws. And you seem to discount that.

      Wait until they figure out their taxes will go up because of the 2017 tax breaks the Republicans gave the rich and themselves.

      Bet they blame Obama for that as well lmao
