I still don’t want to think he’s a bad person, but for me, why he is a bad person is because zero “too-big-to-fail” CEOs went to jail during the immediate aftermath of the '08 crisis.
I liked Obama, but he (like every president) is a bad person. You cannot be a good person and be president (except for maybe Carter, but he’s something else), because every president is a war criminal to some extent. Obama expanded and normalized the drone bombing of brown people and tons of other awful shit.

well carter was hated, i think what you’re looking for is “you can’t be a well liked president, and a good person at the same time”
I think FDR might be the only exception.
We didn’t deserve Jimmy Carter, but I am glad we had him at all.
