Obama plans final White House bash before term ends January 20

Obama pledged before his first term began in 2009 that he would close Guantanamo, but he faced stiff opposition in Congress.

On Sunday, Obama posted a series of tweets celebrating his administration’s achievements, much of which will be jeopardized under the incoming Trump administration.

But Trump even has a confidence deficit among members of his own party: only 84% of Republicans have confidence in his abilities as president, compared to 94% of Democrats who trusted Obama and 95% of Republicans who had faith in Bush.

“From realizing marriage equality to removing barriers to opportunity, we’ve made history in our work to reaffirm that all are created equal”, Obama said in one of the tweets.

The Obamas long have lamented how the presidency denied them freedom and privacy, with first lady Michelle Obama likening the White House to “a really nice prison”.
