Isn’t that question a bit disingenuous, in view of the intransigent resistance to everything Barack Obama tried to achieve in the last eight years?
Actual answer: because this is a democracy. It’s an interactive process. The opposition doesn’t just hand the reins of power over then sit back on their hands while officeholders do what they want until the next election.
PS It’s not like Trump has a popular mandate that gives him some moral imperative to bulldoze the opposition. He lost the popular vote by millions, barely squeaked by in the Electoral College, and is entering office with close to the lowest approval ratings since ratings began.
