By this logic everything passed during the last year or two of Obama’s (and I guess any president’s) 2nd term is political chits?
Just because they didn’t pass the law for a few years doesn’t mean they didn’t care. There’s only so much any body of people can do at once.
- shard972 8y agoThe claim wasn't at it's core about Obama caring, it was about the false media framing this as a return to the bush era (between 10-18 years ago), when really its a change that happened in the Obama era (2-10 years ago).

- rco8786 8y agoThat claim is fine. I was responding to this: > In other words, the Obama administration was fine with the existing rule until most of the way through his second term, apparently doing it for just political chits for the 2016 election cycle.
