The GOP that now controls the majority in the two chambers of the US Congress should never forget that their majorities in both houses are not two-third of the membership of the two houses. The green pen of President Barack Obama can easily veto any bill that is passed into law that is not in line with this President's agendas for America. This President is also empowered constitutionally to use his executive power to do things for America without the US Congress. The best way forward for the next two years of the remaining tenure of this President is for the GOP to play a politics of compromise or give-and-take.
Firstly, Obama will never in this world allow the GOP to repeal the health care bill (Obamacare) that is the main signature tune of the achievement of his presidency. Secondly, this President will not also allow the GOP to refuse to do something about the broken immigration law of America without using his executive power to reform our immigration crisis. Thirdly, this President cares about his legacies and he will never allow himself to be made redundant or a lame-duck- President who will not be able to do anything for America for the remaining two years of his presidency.
Fourthly, the GOP should remember that the last Tuesday midterm elections were all local elections in which Obama was not on the ballot directly. This President is never going to be on the ballot again in 2016 for any reelection and he has nothing to really lose. He won both of his elections in 2008 and 2012 respectively. American voters approved his work and gave him the mandate twice. Lastly, President Obama will also do everything within his constitutional power to prepare the White House for the next Democratic President in 2016. The Impeachment of this President is practically impossible and it will be the biggest political suicide for the GOP. This President has not committed any high crimes or impeachable offenses in office to date#PoliticsIsAGameOfNumberAndAlsoLocal
