Yes, Obama did see opposition. Opposition to his radical agenda. Opposition with a purpose of doing their jobs, not just radical protests and demonstrations like a bunch of kids. Congress has a job to do and they are not there to fight the person. Schumer and ilk are fighting the person (Trump) not the agenda. It is not ideology with the left now. It's an agenda of furthering anarchy. The left has turned into a protest against law and order. A protest against anything that resembles morality and a protest against ethics.
For once, we have a president in D.C. that actually does not NEED the job but wants to make a difference to our country. The left does not protest his agenda, but just him. They don't like him, thus he has to go. He is not ONE of them, so he has to go. The old Democratic party was my family's party, but has disappeared to be replaced by an anti-American, shadow or bizorro image of what the party once stood for. It's a shame. But, now the Democrat party (in name only) is the enemy of America and the American way.
Obama received opposition to his socialist agenda. Good for the minority party that probably saved America from totally going bankrupt. Obama wished only to give someone else's money away, regardless of the consequences.
The Republican party is not perfect, but it has received a wake up call, in the form of Trump. In the old days, little towns hired gunslingers to clean up the town. Once the town was free of criminals, the gunslinger was an embarrassment that they wished to run out of town. The gov has been known to hire computer hackers to fix their security leaks. The point is that Trump may not fit the mold of diplomat, but he is definitely what America needs right now.

Just as an experiment related to the topic of this thread, exactly how far does your partisanship go? For example, are you troubled at all by:
1. The alleged Russian connections to the Trump Campaign?
2. The flip flopping on issues from the Trump Campaign to the Trump Presidency? (like who pays for the wall, NATO, China as a currency manipulator, healthcare will be better and cheaper, Muslim ban, prosecuting Hillary Clinton, Janet Yellin, etc)
3. The late night tweeting?
4. The accusations of Trump Tower being wire tapped?
5. The narcissism?
6. The bashing of Goldman Sachs and then hiring so many former GS execs to serve in the cabinet?
7. The outright lies that Trump tells, which his staff calls "alternative facts" and refuses to address in press briefings, and tells us that we can not take him literally?
So, I get your partisanship, but could any of these issues actually change your mind about our current POTUS?
