Obama had lots of plans and promises, closing Gitmo, winning over the Muslims with his charm, "Hope and Change", blah blah blah. How'd that work out? The problem was we didn't know the man. And when we found out it was "Holy Shit, we're screwed". With Trump we know we're getting a world class negotiator and a true American. Foreign leaders will FEAR and RESPECT him which is crucial. They all think Obama is a Gay coward. I'm through with Nice and PC. That means nothing in a leader.
You got a reasonable president with Obama. He is universally liked around the world, has the economy in a much better position than it was when he took over, and has more or less gotten you out of the ME, although I think there is still more work to do there.
I never thought there would ever be another leader in the US that the rest of the world looks upon as a laughing stock and have zero respect for after Dumbya. Then in walk Donald Trump. He is universally disliked and has zero respect around the world. Trust me, as somebody who doesn't live in the US, we certainly don't respect him, and fear him? Laughable....He's a bona fide idiot.
