"But Obama...."

[easyt65]

On a serious note, as long as Obama sticks around and attempts to cause trouble, like he promised to do, and as long as his hold-overs continue causing problems, Obama will continue to be talked about and brought up.

(In an attempt to save his legacy by causing problems - instead of quietly going away like all the other Presidents, he is damaging the rest of what might remain after Trump is done of his 'Legacy'.)

Obama is in a group of 4 or 5 presidents that share the title of "worst ever",

Sure he is. Except right out of the gate he's 12th

Did you see that list? How is shredding our rule of law and internment good? Give me a fucking break. If people considered our constitution in this, there wouldn't even be a list..

So, I am wondering if any of the Trump followers have any indication when we will move past the "but Obama..." stage for everything that is said in a negative way about Trump.

The Obama disciples never really got past it and I have hope that the Trump followers can do better than that.

The "but Obama..." response shows us that you belive two things about your man.

Obama is in a group of 4 or 5 presidents that share the title of "worst ever", so by comparing your guy to Obama all you are doing is saying "well, he is better than the worst ever". Now while this may end up being true, is that really the mark we as a country is striving for? Is it not possible to shoot for more than "well he does not suck as much as the last two"?

The second thing you are doing is saying that your guy is really no different than Obama, that he is just as devious and dishonest and all those things you called Obama for the last eight years.

I haven't said "but Obama" a single time.

I see no reason too. Only a weak individual points at his predecessor as an excuse for his own failures. Trump will succeed or fail on his own merits.
