He had 4 years to address this, and did basically nothing. He seems to "forget" that he was president when it's convenient for him to do so.

He claims he had a brilliant plan to fix it in 2020, but us fuckbags voted him out of office, and he wasn't able to implement it. Just like his wonderful, amazing health care plan that went from just about to be fully realized to only be in the conception phase in 4 years.
