Unless you’re pregnant in Texas.

Just get on with your life people. Who the president is and their policies don't really affect real people much day to day.

Republicans acted like Obama was the worst thing to ever happen to America. Just showed me that Republicans are clueless drama queens who believed every stupid thing to come out of the mouths of Rush Limbaugh and others.

No.

He was just a fulltime orator community activist toeing the Dem party line. Increase taxes, increase welfare, expand govt, redistribute money.

Didn’t expect him to mollycoddle the UN, Iran, S Korea and Russia though. He was a terrible “diplomat.”

Clinton is a better analog. Clinton was pure trash, top to bottom, who was inexplicably popular only because he pandered to his base's every irrational desire.

Bill Clinton?

He presided over the best economy in the last 50 years and other than a blow job, was probably the best president in anyone reading this lifetime.

Although Republicans love to hate Bill Clinton (I agree he was trashy on a personal level), he did preside over a very strong economy. And he was a lot more centrist than Rep's give him credit for. One of his campaign promises was "to end welfare as we know it," and he passed significant welfare reform which included such measures as a five-year lifetime limit on benefits. In fact, after the passage of the law, the number of individuals receiving federal welfare dramatically declined. He also passed a major crime bill, the COPS initiative, which funded more than 100,000 community police officers. These are things that would give Republicans a hard on.


This is the stuff Republican dreams are made of!

Rewriting history much? Bill Clinton was/is widely considered the most popular president of the last generation. You may not like his Monica drama/lie, but he was very dominant as a politician.

You're kind of making my point for me. Popular or not, he was trash from top to bottom. It's amazing how willing Democrats are willing to rewrite the definition of assault/rape when it's convenient for them.

Every democrat I know thinks he’s a slimeball of a man in private but was a great president. They also think he should have been kicked out of office for the Lewinsky thing.

Trump is loudly, proudly, publicly always a slime ball (and also not a great president.) And republicans actually seem to like this about him. You had enough info about him BEFORE he was elected to decide you weren’t ok with his behavior. Twice. But you chose him twice anyway.

Ok? Trump has been the best president by far this century. Two can play at that game.

I didn’t vote for O the second time around. I started to feel divisive vibes and it turned me off. The POTUS is supposed to protect it’s citizens, not divide them.

No.
I voted republican that year and it was NOT how I felt. Obama made a point to say 'for those who didn't vote for me, I am your president too' and that was important. Trump is just like EFF YOU ALL.
he's like a horrible weird virus that no one can explain but that RFK will make sure there is no vaccine for.

No.
I'm coming at this as someone who voted republicanuntil 2016.
I didn't agree with Obama on everything at the time. Looking back I think he did a good job.

And during his presidency I did not feel that his decisions were prioritizing himself over America.

I didn't feel like he was beholden to a foreign power.

I felt that he had respect for the laws of our land and our traditions.

I felt he conducted himself with pride and presented us well to the world.
