Things like Obamacare are far to the left of anything we've had before. Obama also believed in the redistribution of American wealth to the rest of the world and was willing to sacrifice American jobs with the Trans Pacific Partnership and the Paris accord.

Except obamacare was modeled off a republican idea. The individual mandate = personal responsibility.

The GOP has become more warped with each decade

Obama was great at playing golf, and going to Martha's Vineyard, and Hawaii on vacation. The rest of the time he gave Hope and Change speeches at Democrat fundraisers. This thankfully stopped him from pushing more of his far left ideology through public policy.

Donald Trump took 111 vacation days in the first year of his Presidency. Barack Obama took 26 vacation days in his first year. Please try again.

Of course you're not the only conservative who uses his brains and judges accordingly; it seems the radical right and left just have louder voices.

It's as if you have no idea how many days President Trump spends at one of his golf resorts. Unbelievable that a Trump fan would make this comment.

Pilot, I thought the same thing and that's why I call Obama the celebrity president. I thought the first debate against Romney where Romney easily won the debate portrayed Obamas real attitude perfectly. Obama knew the media had his back so why would he have to work hard.

All in all, people expected him being elected to obliterate all racism. He wasn't suppose to talk about it, identify it, acknowledge himself as a POC, sympathetize, empathize, etc.


It's like if someone gets invited into an exclusive club then later on starts wearing braids or their natural hair.



"Wait now! We let you in, you're not suppose to "be black" like that?"
Yes, but basic Individual 1 supporters don't mind him saying he is a nationalist, demeaning woman, veterans, and ethnic groups. They are the definition of hypocrisy.
