He had to know that two terms would never be enough to clean up the mess left by that gang of fools and that he would get blamed for the whole thing by the actual perps and their buddies in the liberal media.

I mean, hell, if I saw this coming, the president, presumably a hell of a lot smarter than I am, sure as shit should have. Is he so naive he didn't believe it would get this bad? Or so cynical he just wanted to set himself up to make a lot of money after he left the White House and didn't care about getting blamed for the fuckups?
