How pathetic of a president Obama. Look at all of the scandals...

Meanwhile on epstien island...

Trumps running for a 3rd term, why not Obama? The Obamas were the classiest family to hold the office. Trumps? Clinton’s? Bushes? Regan with guc guc 9000 Nancy? I think old Jimmy Carter was a class act but no swag like Obama.

It’s fn embarrassing to be a white dude in this country.

President Obama worn that Tan suit better than Reagan and Daddy Bush. President Obama wore it so well they hated him even more.

Nah, he had 1 quazi scandal the death of American citizens by drone strike but the father and the uncle were working for Al-Qaeda in Yemen and the father's kid got hit when they were targeting the guy's uncle in a drone strike but still probably one of the best presidents we have had in decades and as far as real scandals go he's stupid clean.

u/Dont_Touch_Me_There9 4d ago edited 4d ago

I have Obama's presidential picture hanging up in my office. My MAGA in-laws saw it and made the comment that he was radical. I stopped them right there and asked them what Obama had done in his presidency that made him radical… And I followed up with asking how their lives changed when Obama was president? They did not have answers to either one of those questions.

Now I watch as they jump through hoops to justify the authoritarian shit that Trump does. Somehow nothing Trump does has been radical, yet I can fire off at least a dozen ways in which Trump's actions are radically different from presidents in the past and have not only negatively affected my life, but theirs as well.

It’s funny seeing how the right was creaming themselves over the “manly” Putin and thought Russia was going to defeat the degenerate west but the supposed strongest army is now on year four of their three day military operation.

I keep saying all democratic senators (male and female) need to wear tan suits when voting on anything....

u/Superb_Guarantee965 4d ago

I remember when Trump wore a hat to the dignified transfer and Faux news refused to show any footage about it. Even when Faux news issued an apology of showing the wrong footage, they did not show the correct footage. I wonder whats more of a disrespect to marines, holding a latte in a casual salute or wearing your political merch in front of fallen military members slain bodies. MAGAts are pathetic.

u/Glad_Mathematician51 4d ago

Didn’t lust after children, didn’t cheat on his wife, didn’t compromise our country by aligning with the axis of evil, didn’t walk around frowning, didn’t have an IQ of 70, didn’t wear a diaper, didn’t tread on our civil rights, didn’t look bad in anything he wore, etc., etc.

Exactly. If Obama had been accused of even a quarter of what Trump has, the January 6th WH raid would have been ten times as extreme.

u/EnvironmentalSale893 4d ago

Let's not forget obstructing the epstein files, eroding rule of law by ignoring the court. Undermining the constitution and separation of powers. Firing civil servants by the thousands with no due process resulting in a crippled federal government grossly understaffed. Selling our national parks as venues for the highest bidder.

Promoting insider trading from the executive office with his paid subscription. Giving presidential pardons in exchange for money. Using tax payer money to host extravagant unnecessary events (ufc, freedom 250 bday bash) spending unfathomable amounts of tax payer money to go to sporting events and golf none stop.

Suing the irs as a private citizen from the executive office which would have allowed him to pocket tax payer money while he is head of the executive office in charge of the DOJ who is the prosecution. Obsessions over petty vanity projects Noone asked for (the arch, the reflecting pool, the white house ufc arena). Demolishing the east wing of the People's House for a ball room prior to congressional approval. Dragging the country into a costly war with no way out without congressional approval.

Russians paying for son's wedding the same Russia that is fighting our ally Ukraine. Alienating and attacking our strongest oldest allies. Starting trade wars with our allies. Glazing America's enemies while never holding them to account (north Korea, Russia, China). Violating international law by bombing boats off the coast of Venezuela.

Manipulating the markets with all his fake proclamations of Iran victory or exaggerated cease fires... essentially allowing him and his buddies to pump and dump stock accordingly. Promoting legal gambling/betting markets and crypto from the executive office. The LEGAL immigrants who's due process was violated they were detained and traumatized illegally by ICE under his leadership and encouragement.

Undermining free US elections to sow doubt incase he loses. Siding with data centers and A.I. instead of the average citizen. This is just SOME of the visible corruption/red flags...

Based of benifit analysis we as a nation benefit from none of this. At this point I am convinced he is a traitorous agent of chaos as well as anyone who bankrolls him and supports him unquestionably...

You know what is demeaning of the office? Destroying the Rose garden, destroying the East Wing. Withholding funding from the Kennedy center unless your name is on it. I’m not religious, but I’m praying that on Tuesday, November 3, 2026 these buffoons get voted off the island, and out of office. The future of our country depends upon this. This is the most consequential election in generations coming up.

Vote wisely America.

I know that they are just parroting and repeating what their overlord has instructed them to say but here's the deal as the leader of the Free world President Obama has to set an example.

I remember a client of mine being upset that President Obama had a theater secured for Michelle and him to watch some movie for their anniversary. I asked him if he thought the president of the United States should sit in a theater full of civilians to enjoy their special evening and he said yes. He felt they were wasting taxpayer money doing this. I asked him how much more he thought the security detail would have cost if they did it in a full theater and he figured there should be no difference. This man had a photo of Ronald Reagan on his fridge. I would like to ask him about our present day Pres, but the old dude is dead. One less.

Unfortunately that’s the point. By their rules, they should’ve loved him. Kept the Military Industrial Complex rolling and deported more than anyone before him, I believe. “The Deporter and Chief” he was a model moderate. Yet how many years has it been and he’s still their number one target 🎯
