Only because, unlike Donald, he didn't open his mouth about all the shitty things he was doing every hour of every day.
Obama was just as much of a motherfucker as Donald. He was just smart enough to make his pretty, generic speeches and otherwise keep his fucking mouth shut.
Both sides?
From a comparative standing:
Trump is clearly worse. Also more incompetent. Our grandkids will be recovering from his impact on the working class.
The only difference was presentation. That and, arguably Obama's corruption was worse considering his brain was actually functional.
As for 'both sides', might be a good time to ditch your thought-terminating cliches.
Am I arguing with a high schooler?
Or a bot. "The only difference was presentation." is a gemini-assed thing to say.
While Obama and Trump do have policy differences, their primary role is as facilitators of imperialism and maintenance of settler-colonialism. In that sense, that crucial, principal sense, both are deeply aligned, and as this is principal, it is the driving factor.
Brilliant response.
Have a great day.
Worst day on record this year actually.
