As Democrats bemoan the new Trump administration's ability to face problems in the world, let's go back in time to remember when then-Senator Obama claimed that America's relations with the Moslem world would improve the day he was inaugurated.
And more important than what Obama claimed, remember that his acolytes ate this up. It was change they could believe in.
As America actively wages war against jihadis--now with France at our side!--in Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Pakistan, and Somalia--and more low key efforts in other countries--recall the complete and utter nonsense that President Obama's supporters believed as a reason to elect him.
And the Long War goes on.
