93. EXACTLY. But the "good" people blame Obama. Gee I wonder why?! I don't buy OP's narrative

for a second. Sorry. The working people in this country have been attacked for years by globalist RIGHT WINGERS (see the entire Reagan era). Did these people pay any attention to WHEN their unions were broken? When wages froze and manufacturing was destroyed by foreign competition? (hint it was way before Obama). I find it quite unbelievable that they just realized that all of this is happening and that Obama (and I guess Hillary) was responsible.
