Yeah, it's obvious that none of the contributing writers for the New Yorker publication penned that piece of extreme right-wing, anti-Obama, anti-government rhetoric. I think it's well-written, but it's just a repackaging of the same bullshit I've been hearing/reading from those camps for 8 years.
My favorite points on Fredrick's list of serious national grievances and failures of the Democratic Party (about which he claims 'much of the country' is fed up and a vote for Trump could fix) are: 'Michelle Obama's food police', 'Michelle Obama's vacations', 'Barack Obama's vacations', 'Barack Obama's arrogant and condescending lectures' and 'Barack Obama's golf'...
Even for people who actually agree with Fredrick's assessment and see those points as problems or national crises, obviously a vote for anyone (or no one) in 2016 would be as effective as a vote for Trump in alleviating their angst, though I won't be surprised if Fredrick and the disgruntleds continue bitching about the Obamas' vacations and personal styles even after they leave the White House.
