It would be nice if there were bipartisan support, but I'm afraid the Republicans in Congress will quash this effort for no other reason than that it originated with Obama.
And it would take him getting a skin dye job and joining the Republican party to change that. But that does not mean that he does not try, and whatever compromise the Republicans now call "inacceptable" they can't really adopt when they are in charge again without looking like hypocrites.

The post-Obama era would have a better starting position if he indeed made leftist and Marxist policies like his political opponents fantasize: then finding a political position recognizably rightwards would not require reverting to extremism.

If Obama were to actually make an effort to build bipartisan support for once
instead of making mouth motions but behaving spectacularly and arrogantly
partisan, perhaps there would be bipartisan support for some of what he tries to
do. He continues to behave as though he owns both houses of Congress and
doesn't care what the loyal opposition thinks about anything. He prefers to
throw blame than man up and actually work toward a consensus.

Don't forget - the original "party of no" was the Democrat party
during the first two years of the first GW Bush term... it's the way things are
supposed to work, according to the Democrats.
