Well said. I would say the media treated Obama with kid gloves, but I don't think they even threw any punches at all.
It's all identity politics. First black president could do no wrong according to mainstream media. It's a complete joke. He was a terrible president.
Yeah...Obama was a terrible President.
1) No scandals in 8 years.
2) Saw us out of the worse recession since the Great Depression which saw the stock market on a meteoric rise from March of 2009 right after he took office until he left office. Unemployment rate dropped steadily from October 2010 until he left office.
3) Did not allow nationalization of banks which was the talk at end of Bush's Presidency.
4) Helped save the US auto industry.
5) INSTIGATED PRIORITY TO GET AND THEN DID GET OSAMA BIN LADEN. Republicans would have creamed their jeans if this happened while a Republican was President.
6) Maintained strong alliances with our traditional international friends while not cozying up to dictators.
7) Represented the US with poise, intelligence, and grace.
Controversial;
Obamacare (ACA) - Great idea. Just needed (and still NEEDS tweaking as it is still in place). Even if you think it is a bad idea (I have no issue with a difference in policy), this pales in comparison (really not even a comparison) to the train wreck that is Donald Trump.
"They're gonna have to be in extremely good shape to get over this one. They would be able to climb Mount Everest a lot easier I think."- Donald J. Trump
Are you kidding me with this? You want to compare Obama in an unfavorable light compared to Trump?
The need to get the butterfly net for Trump...except that what he really needs is a jail cell...and that's coming.
Mueller is coming.
The clown is done.
No scandals? This proves to me all you do is watch mainstream media and you're simply ignorant of facts. There were plenty of scandals under Obama. Do your research. I'm not going to do it for you.
Maintained strong alliances? You've got to me kidding me. If you consider continuing to get bent over on horrible deals with other countries "maintaining alliances" then sure. How was his relationship with North Korea? China? These are important issues that President Trump is finally taking care of for the American people.....
Obama was terrible to veterans and the military. He insisted on spending money for transgender medical costs which is completely ridiculous. Really? His priority wasn't strengthening the military, but instead ensuring people could switch genders and have it paid for. And you support that? Wow....
Donald Trump has already accomplished more in his 2 years than Obama did in 8 years. Anyone who says otherwise has their liberal blinders on.
2020 is coming.
Deja vu is coming.
