I’m not sure what alternate universe you’re residing in, but Trump can’t even sneeze without being attacked. Trump gets a “pass” for NOTHING. Even as the successes keep accumulating... the attacks only escalate.....
And yet you forget all the constant attacks on Obama from the right, not to mention the constant attacks on Michelle Obama. And what successes? He hasn't had any other than dividing this nation of ours. That has been and will be his only success.
"He's different"
He's a rich white guy who became president, just barely. We've had lots of them. Although most have won by a lot more. Obama is a black guy with a funny name (How many Baracks do you know?) Now that's different. "That's different is a bull**** argument anyway. Being "different" does not give one carte blanch to say or do whatever they want. Trump is the first person I have ever seen given that totally nonsensical excuse.
"Well, there's no law saying he has to"
There was also no law saying Obama had to release his college records. Or that Hillary Clinton had to release her speech transcripts.
(bragging about electoral victory)
Obama once said "The elections over, I won" and the **** hit the fan. Trump brags constantly about his win, including in a speech to the Boy Scouts, and it's totally ignored.
"He has a right to defend himself"
I can't think of a single instance where Obama personally attacked but if he did I doubt very much that his right to defend himself would have been acknowledged. I do know that if he had ever personally attacked people as one tenth as much as Trump does, if he had been constantly attacking "conservatives" and "Republicans" throughout his presidency the conservatives who now say that Trump has a right to defend himself would be screaming bloody murder.
It used to be a tradition that former presidents don't criticize sitting presidents and directly related to that is the tradition that sitting presidents don't criticize former presidents. Sitting president Trump has constantly attacked Obama and we're told "He's different, he breaks the rules" (He breaks the rules is another bull**** defense) But then once Obama made a comment about Trump, I don't think he even mentioned his name but supposedly it was about Trump. And he was criticized for "breaking the tradition" of former presidents attacking sitting presidents. But cons who whine about that have no problem with Trump breaking the sitting presidents attacking former presidents rule. Note that this is also a case where Obama is denied the right to defend himself. Trump can attack Obama all he wants but Obama can't respond. That's the standard the stupid cons think we should have.
Trump's constant attack on the FBI etc and Obama one saying that the Cambridge police acted stupidly, that's another one.
Dinesh D'Souza used to blither and blather about "Obama's rage" which he never once gave any examples of. He's totally silent on Trump's rage.
All excellent questions that Trump supporters can’t answer.
The truth is, they live in their own worlds, largely detached from reality. It’s quite sad how easy it it to mislead these sheep, they’ve given up their critical thinking skills entirely.

Bingo. There are two realities. One which is real which most of us live in and the other made up by Republicans in their own little echo chamber bubble.
All this started right after Nixon. Propaganda works. All of that work the Republicans have done for a generation is showing off today. The Republican base deeply believes everyone is always lying to them and they are always victims.
In otherwords, "Fake News" isn't fake after all. They just report the facts. Obama, however, didn't get his pantaloons in a pucker every time a negative story about him was published. Obama was a much superior human being in every way.
It started two years into his second term. Why didn't he fix the problems rather than letting them smolder and grow into a full blown recession and nearly a depression? Thank heaven Obama knew how to put the brakes on it.
wrong my friend, bush inherited a recession from clinton. it started in 98 when the tech bubble collapsed, two years BEFORE bush was elected. the only thing that kept the economy from falling apart like it did in 2007 was the housing bubble building up. and bush tried 13 times to to reign that bubble in, but chris dodd and barney frank both thwarted those efforts by saying there was nothing wrong with the housing markets. we found out differently didint we?
