From The New York Times Editorial Board in a piece titled, "A New Phase in Anti-Obama Attacks":
It is a peculiar, but unmistakable, phenomenon: As Barack Obama’s presidency heads into its twilight, the rage of the Republican establishment toward him is growing louder, angrier and more destructive.
Republican lawmakers in Washington and around the country have been focused on blocking Mr. Obama’s agenda and denigrating him personally since the day he took office in 2009. But even against that backdrop, and even by the dismal standards of political discourse today, the tone of the current attacks is disturbing. So is their evident intent — to undermine not just Mr. Obama’s policies, but his very legitimacy as president.
It is a line of attack that echoes Republicans’ earlier questioning of Mr. Obama’s American citizenship. Those attacks were blatantly racist in their message — reminding people that Mr. Obama was black, suggesting he was African, and planting the equally false idea that he was secretly Muslim. The current offensive is slightly more subtle, but it is impossible to dismiss the notion that race plays a role in it.

According to the article, the most glaring example is the #47traitors letter sent by Senate Republicans to the leaders of Iran. But also mentioned is a bill being crafted in Arizona that forbids state workers from obeying President Obama's executive orders.
it's encouraging to see high [profile entities acknowledging the racist intent in republican rhetoric from before day one of his first inauguration. you may recall an article about republicans sitting in a closed door room the night of Nov. 4th 2008 planning on how "to make Obama a one term President", there has never been any desire to do anything including the work of the people until they in their words "see him fail". well if anyone is keeping score this might help your results.
could this be the reason the hyped up faux republican attacks are getting more vitriolic and can they manage hate campaigns on two Dems at the same time while faking running the gov't, so many things so little time 2016 just round the bend.
