So, just read Trumps speech and I gotta say, that, compared to Obama's... wow I'm ******* embarrassed by what we have in the WH today. I never honestly liked Obama, certainly never voted for him, but I respected the office and the votes of the majority that put him in that office so I've minded my P's and Q's out of respect until today... Today Obama showed me that he does not deserve even that respect. Dammit Obama, you abandoned the people when they needed you to be strong for them, especially when you don't give them permission to be angry. I apologize for my disrespect to the position of the POTUS, and to all those who voted for this man, but dammit America, you made a mistake, you were wrong...
Compared to what Bush Dubya did, how can you criticize Obama?
Yea I can, while we can argue if the war on terror was right or wrong, we can argue if it was too expensive, if it brought ISIS, all of that. That is not the issue.
When they bombed the world trade center Bush spoke directly to the anger that we felt, he said it was okay and he moved decisively to action and justice. In that moment, the POTUS felt as the people he represented did, he felt angry just as we did, he acknowledge it, he allowed it, and he reacted with us to it.
Obama, does not, he does not relate to his people - he is a king on a throne /dictating/ to us, he is not one of us.
