* Erik’s Editorial: Trump blames “bad” things he inhered from Obama, Trump does not credit good things he inherited from Obama (2017-02-12)

Today’s word to watch (and Google news search) is “inherit” and its variants. Note now the Trump is administration quick to blame the Obama administration for the (imagined) “bad” things that they have “inherited” while failing to give credit for the (in fact) good things. A true leader takes credit for the good, blame for the bad. The buck stops here.

I’ve lost 3 Facebook friends since I started speaking out against the autocrat Donald Trump. I’m not trying to convince anyone to change their minds. I’m commiserating with like-minded friends. So please, no trolling. This site, on the other hand, has the potential to change minds:

Law school application rates have been falling for years. I’m betting that fall 2017 rates will be up.

FWIW, they also did an Obama Promise Tracker. But it’s Trump’s White House now. Own the wins, own the losses.
