    Those prefering Obama need to be reminded who he was and not who the manufactured legacy creators have sculpted HIM out to be. He’s as large a POS as the current POS that laid the foundations and created the tools that Trump’s currently using.

      Yeah, no

      The guy definitely is flawed, he did a whole lot of shitty things and in any European country he would have never made it to any position with power.

      Having said that: comparing him to Trump is disingenuous at best. The guy is thoughtful and generally respectful and can carry a conversation, he did not go full Gestapo on Americans, he didn’t alienate every ally the US had, he didn’t go to try and destroy the country and I could go on.

      All US presidents since WWII have been shite, but I’d say Obama probably has been the best president of the US since WWII

        BlueMAGA isnt as far removed from MAGA as they like to believe. Both refuse to see what’s in front of them regardless of their fascist leaders but see it plain as day in others
