Obama's biggest fault was that he didn't sell the American people on the inarguably excellent deal he got on the bailouts. The American people did profit off of those and most people don't know that because he didn't make a big deal about it.

Conversely, Trump, if he knows nothing else, knows how to focus doggedly on what's going to excite his base. If he can sell his base on the idea of loan-sharking Boeing (which is a legitimate strategy), then he'll come out looking like a winner, despite the fact that he'll have done the exact same thing as Obama.

Remember, never let your accomplishments go unrecognized by those you serve. https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/02/13/the-iceberg-secret...
