Obama Trying to ‘Trump-Proof’ the White House

McClatchy: “Obama is trying to put the people and policies in place that he wants to outlast his presidency in the final weeks before Donald Trump takes over. And his supporters want more, way more.”

“Every president tries to push through last-minute policies before their time in office comes to a close. But this year has a more frantic feel as special interest groups push Obama to do more, not just because the president-elect is of a different party but because few people know what he will do.”

“With six weeks remaining, their to-do list for Obama is long.”
