This is honestly the first time I’ve seen pretty much anything about it.

    Saving this one for the next time I’m hit with the “the whole world thinks we’re a joke with [democrat] in charge. This is why Trump is great. The world respects us with him leading.”

      I’ll be honest: The world thinks y’all are a joke no matter who’s in charge, though Trump is a worse joke.

        We liked Obama, what’s he up to now? Think you could convince him to grey his hair a little more due to actually taking the job seriously?

            It’s ok, trump is fixing that rule, so Obama can come back even following the rules. But even if not, I bet there is probably at least 1 more person that would be a good president, we haven’t seen much evidence of that… but they must exist.

            Drones were gonna happen at that point in time, no matter who the president was. It’s not like US was the only ones using them.

              The drones are part of it, but more broadly remember he ran on ending the Iraq war and shutting down Guantanamo bay and yet he did neither.

                That is a fact, and many don’t like to remember it. Obama was better than some presidents obviously but he was a disappointment to every anti-war voter.
