He's the one who put the Democratic Party in jeopardy.
It wasn't Hillary Clinton who made it seem like the Democrats left the working class. That was 8 years of Obama. I love him, but his inability to work with Congress, outsmart them, reject the 50 state strategy, Obamacare, etc. put Hillary at a disadvantage from day one. She failed to inspire, but she also didn't run of a platform like George Bush could do with Reagan.
Hillary improved in 8 states over '12 Obama results. Where did she do bad? The states that Obama should've made sure was economically thriving. The Rust Belts.
