President Obama:
• Got 190 countries — including China — to reach a historic agreement to address climate change;
• Coordinated with Russia to get Syria to stop using outlawed chemical weapons, a prohibition that lasted more than three years — until Trump took office;
• Broke Republican opposition to extensions in unemployment insurance and payroll tax cuts, clean energy grants, and $313 billion in new spending, as well as START II, emergency assistance for 9–11 first responders, and the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell,” in exchange for nothing more than a two-year extension of the Bush tax cuts for upper-bracket income — in effect, an $858 billion stimulus package;
• Convinced an energy-dependent Europe to join in imposing economic sanctions on Russia in the aftermath of its incursion into Ukraine;
• Urged European allies in 2014 to pledge to meet their funding commitments to NATO after years of funding shortfalls;
• Assembled a 65-nation coalition of allies — and adversaries — to combat the ISIS terrorist group;
• Eased travel restrictions with Cuba and started talks on normalizing relations — marking the end of the Cold War in the West;
• Initiated negotiations with adversaries Russia, China and the other P5+1 world powers and Iran on a landmark agreement to block Iran’s nuclear weapons program;
• Got powerful hospital groups, healthcare providers, and private insurers to accept reduced levels of reimbursement and payment as part of healthcare reform;
• Got insurance companies to stop denying coverage because of pre-existing conditions and eliminate annual and lifetime caps;
• Got insurance companies to cover contraception;
• Capped profits for health insurance companies;
• Got Walmart, the nation’s largest private employer, to commit to getting half of its energy from renewable sources;
• Engineered the rescue of General Motors and Chrysler – overcoming objections from bondholders, retirees, and unionized workers – after President Bush failed despite spending much of 2008 trying;
• Got automakers to voluntarily boost fuel standards for cars and trucks;
• Got Canada and Mexico to renegotiate NAFTA in exchange for increased access to the fastest-growing region in the world;
• Persuaded protectionist economies to open up their agricultural, automotive, professional services, and financial sectors to foreign competition in order to provide American workers and exporters a level playing field;
• Convinced moderately authoritarian regimes to agree to liberalize their societies and “globalize” human and labor rights by outlawing human trafficking, forced and child labor and other human rights violations in exchange for favorable trade conditions, by raising environmental and labor standards; and by allowing labor unions and a free, open and unrestricted Internet — all as part of the proposed Trans-Pacific Partnership.
