Obampromise 

A compromise that is reached where one side gets everything they want and the other gets little to nothing. The side getting nothing then claims they are happy with the deal and acts as if it was part of their plan the whole time.

Obampromise origin: Barack Obama’s willingness to stand tall in speeches about fighting for his principles but always rolls over to Republican demands. He gets nothing but still claims it was a mutual agreement.
“I wanted to go to Vegas for vacation but my girlfriend wanted to go to her mother’s house. We Obampromised and decided to go to her mother’s house. I think I got what I wanted in the end.”
