    Obama doesn’t know his shit, he’s a Chicago school economist and a war criminal. He was a better president than Trump but that’s an extremely low bar to clear.

        Bush was a terrible president and an evil human being but Obama did increase the annual civilian targeting drone strike quota.

          And he walked up to the Nobel committee and said so. You aren’t saying anything new. You aren’t bringing shit as Obama literally called out that he is bound to the trajectory of the nation. He literally recognized this and called it out

          He literally called out your shit and worked with it.

          Meanwhile bush recked the economy and Obama saw reality and with Gethner stopped the country from shutting down atms. Most folks will never understand how close we got but that’s cool.

      You don’t need to agree with the man to acknowledge that he’s intelligent, well-read, and knowledgeable about a whole ton of shit. Grow up.

      Dude taught Constitutional Law at a prestigious law school for over a decade. What have you done?

        Yeah, it’s comments like that (and the amount of upvotes they tend to receive) that make me wary of lemmy… Nobody is saying you need to agree with Obama. We get it, he’s a “stupid lib” or whatever. But to suggest he isn’t intelligent is just fucking absurd.
