Obama legitimately won the popular vote and remains much more popular than Trump
Oh, well, then Obama's a failure because, in 1984, Ronald Reagan carried 49 states and was easily more popular then than Obama is now. The only state Reagan failed to carry was Minnesota, which was his opponent's home state. Reagan got 525 electoral votes; the most in history. In 2008, Obama got only 365 electoral votes. In 2012, that number slipped to 332 electoral votes, indicating that Obama lost some of the popularity that libs like to tout.
To paraphrase you, look at how many people voted for Reagan in 1984 compared to the number who voted for Obama in 2012. Reagan would've destroyed Obama...
