somebody has to speak up and defend democracy...never imagined that we would accept a narcissistic, autocratic and wannabe despot, with grandiose delusions/megalomania, as our leader...

We've mostly agreed that Trump isn't the polished and eloquent politician that his predecessor was/is.

Now we should agree that Obama is literally no better.

The only high road Obamy ever chose was on the train to see mary jane.

At least he inhaled.

You're right. At least he inhaled. And Obama is eloquent by comparison.
But so was Mel Tillis.

But you're wrong in saying that by going on the campaign trail and pointing out that Trump is an amoral idiot that he's ' no better'.

Man's a politician. Doing what they do. Campaigning!


Plus Obama's funny! And apparently very observant.

Some would argue that if democracy is so fragile it can be toppled by the election of a single individual to a single office, it's not worth speaking up for...

Perhaps I'm naive, but I'm of the opinion that we can elect some horrific people into office (and we have) without significantly changing who we are as a nation... The checks and balances of the 3 branches perform sufficiently enough that significantly altering the direction our nation is near impossible... I'm not of the opinion that that's a good thing, but it is what it is... From where I stand, it seems that not much changes from election cycle to election cycle, save the headlines...

at one time, cons would point to people like Trump and say how despicable he is...but put an R behind his name...

I sincerely hope that the libs would not elect someone like Trump...but if we do, I sincerely hope that I'd be as critical of him/her as I am of Trump...

OBAMMY sucks at being a DRUG DEALER....

EVERY MASSIVE DRUG DEAL HE TRIES TO MAKE GETS CAUGHT AT SEA BY THE BRITISH NAVY....

AND, HE just lost his "secret compound" in Thailand that was built with stolen money from the multi billion dollar loan to some Chinese conglomerate for Solar and Wind energy....
DELTA FORCE raided Obama's Thailand hideout and found millions in gold bullion...weapons galore...and tons of food and water as a hideout if the Apocalypse goes down....

The fact is, you're wrong.
Former Presidents don't attack current Presidents.

I always assumed that Trump would be the first to break that tradition.

Thanks Obama.

Not sure if "despicable" is the proper term.

I never liked Trump.
Never saw the Apprentice.
Thought his book sucked.
Never thought he could be president.

But when push came to shove, and in the wake of the divisiveness of Obama and the emboldened politics from the main stream media, it was an easy choice on election day.

Oh?

Teddy Roosevelt on President William McKinley: “No more backbone than a chocolate éclair.”
Perhaps T.R. was inspired by Ulysses S. Grant’s comment on James A. Garfield: “[He] is not possessed of the backbone of an angleworm.”
Lyndon Johnson on Gerald Ford: “Jerry Ford is so dumb that he can’t fart and chew gum at the same time.”
Woodrow Wilson on Warren G. Harding: “He has a bungalow mind.”
Dwight D. Eisenhower, when asked if his veep, Richard Nixon, had contributed any major ideas to Ike’s presidency: “If you give me a week, I might think of one.”
Herbert Hoover on Franklin D. Roosevelt: “[A] chameleon on plaid.”
Calvin Coolidge on Herbert Hoover: “That man has offered me unsolicited advice for six years, all of it bad.”
Thomas Jefferson on John Adams: “A blind, bald, crippled, toothless man who is a hideous hermaphroditic character with neither the force and fitness of a man, nor the gentleness and sensibility of a woman.”
John’s son John Quincy Adams on Thomas Jefferson: “A slur upon the moral government of the world.”
And one more from the saltiest president, LBJ, on Nixon: “I may not know much, but I know chicken sh*t from chicken salad.”

Empty rhetoric TG. As usual.
