I had no issue with clinton and obama. I still consider obama to be the best president of my lifetime. All the same he should really be the low bar for president. I often wish we had more of a parlimentary system. I think if we had the examples of today the founding fathers would have based congress more on modern parliments.
I will never label “best President of my lifetime” the guy who let war criminals walk and then legalized and codified some of the worst aspects of the War on Terror.
Why is Donald Trump walking free? Because we couldn’t/wouldn’t even begin to prosecute war criminals.
Milquetoast Obama letting war criminals walk literally set the stage for this. You don’t get to be shocked about the kid-gloves treatment for Trump after knowing “the best President of your lifetime” chose to not prosecute war criminals because it “might appear partisan” or some dumb shit. It’s literally the same dumb hand-wringing we get with Trump today. We are stuck with Trump because Obama didn’t have the fucking balls to prosecute war criminals.
Why are they scared to prosecute a former President? Because we have refused to do it again and again when it matters.
Your are not taking into account who is competing against. Name a better president and be ready to list all their ills. Honestly the thing that is highest on my obama issues is the opposite of what you list which is his treatment of snowden.
