The best summary so far for the resasonfor that revisionis is AVGs.....

That feelgood factor has among some morphed into a revision of the reality of events to fit their rose tinted view and a blindness to the actual outcomes of his presidency.


That is a little off target, the topic starts with a perfect example of the revisionism.
