A Historian Schools Joe Scarborough

As an historian, let me start by saying: No, he hasn't. Not by a long shot. /1 twitter.com/JoeNBC/status/…

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 10, 2015

If anything, historians will fault Obama for seemingly naive belief that he could launch, as he said in 2008, a "post-partisan" America. /2

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 10, 2015

****

Obama's first years in office showed bipartisan outreach we have not seen in the modern era before. He's the *least* partisan president. /3

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 10, 2015

When Obama formed his Cabinet, he added two Republicans and, until Judd Gregg rejected the Commerce position, nearly had three. /4

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 10, 2015

****

To put that in perspective, two Cabinet members of opposition party ties the 20th c. record: FDR's unity govt as nation entered WWII. /5

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 10, 2015

His major policy proposals were very bipartisan. A third of the stimulus package was tax cuts GOP had previously proposed, for instance. /6

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 10, 2015

****

Health care reform modeled on Romney's MA plan. On foreign policy, Obama kept Bush's SecDef and followed SOFA timetable on Iraq. /7

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

Despite such bipartisanship, Obama was met w/ unprecedented levels of obstructionism in the House and Senate, as @NormOrnstein has shown /8

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

****

As @MikeGrunwald noted in his terrific book, Republicans set out to deny Obama any GOP votes on major laws like stimulus, ACA, etc. /9

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

Cantor and McConnell forbade caucuses from voting or even negotiating, to create the image that Obama was "most partisan" POTUS ever /10

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

****

GOP embraced knee-jerk opposition to anything Obama proposed. As Sen. Voinovich noted: “If he was for it, we had to be against it.” /11

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

Again, read @NormOrnstein and Thomas Mann's book on this -- the GOP Congress imposed unprecedented delays, holds, filibusters, etc. /12

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

****

Add on top of that the unbridled hostility -- birther nonsense, Joe Wilson screaming "You lie!" from the House floor at the POTUS, etc. /13

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

And you have asymmetric polarization in which Obama generally started from a position of compromise, but was still rebuffed constantly /14

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

****

It's amazing to conclude, as @JoeNBC does, Obama is "the most partisan" president -- when he's actually one of the least partisan. /15

—
Kevin M. Kruse (@KevinMKruse) September 11, 2015

As an historian, I assure you: When we look back, Obama will fare just fine. But this idiocy in our news media will be mocked endlessly. /16

Secretary of State John Kerry suggested on Thursday that the United States would play a greater role in alleviating the increasingly high-profile Syrian refugee crisis, which the United Nations believes to be the worst refugee dilemma in 25 years. “We could do a lot more to protect those people,” Kerry told The Huffington Post’s Sam Stein. Speaking from the State Department, Kerry acknowledged that while America has donated over $4 billion in humanitarian assistance to help Syrians, the situation in their war-ravaged country and in neighboring states remains dire for millions. Kerry did not suggest that the U.S. should be taking in more refugees. Rather, he indicated that any increased American effort would focus on working with existing refugee camps in other countries.
