Summary
Barack Obama sharply criticized Donald Trump’s presidency during a speech at Hamilton College, condemning attacks on the press, immigration crackdowns, and threats to civil liberties.
He called it “unimaginable” that Trump’s actions—such as barring the AP and threatening law firms—would have been tolerated under past presidents.
Obama warned that Trump’s behavior, though “goofy,” poses real danger, and he labeled Trump a “wannabe dictator.”
He also referenced former Trump aide John Kelly’s “fascist” remark and urged Americans not to mistake chaos for leadership.
You people are fucking idiots… At this point, I’m starting to feel like we deserve this dumb ass administration.
You might deserve it, I’m pretty confident saying the trans kids and legal immigrants who are being disappeared off the streets probably don’t.
Not trying to tigger you, but who would you pick for a third (albeit unconstitutional) term?
Why do we need to do this? How about nobody?
Well sounds like Trump is gonna try. If he gets that third term, that’s it, game, set, match.
We absolutely do, and it’s why I just want to fucking leave now. Americans will gleefully flee into the arms of the neoliberal ghouls that got them into this mess, if there are continued elections, only to hand the country back to fascists immediately after once it’s clear how feckless the neoliberals are.
