Oh excuse me. Republicans have taken the House, the Senate, and the White House against the popular vote. They are in power right now, and you want me to talk about how terrible Obama was? Right now, they are putting a pure operative into the Supreme Court after essentially stealing the deciding seat just a few months ago, and you're complaining about Obama?

LET'S NOT FORGET that Republicans are in power. Let's not forget that they are fundamentally transforming America to the days of gunboat diplomacy. Let's not forget that Obama stopped the rush to war with Iran and Donald Trump has restarted it. Let's not forget that Republicans have provided some 20 trillion in tax cuts to the top one percent since 1981. Let's not forget that Obama spent years fighting to protect net neutrality and Republican Donald Trump wiped it away.

No, both parties are not the same. You can criticize the "opposition" party all you like but that doesn't change the fact that the Party of Oligarchy will only promote oligarchy. It's called the real world.

Do you remember after 9-11 how every car had a flag on its antennae and George W. Bush's approval rating became the highest ever? These are the Americans you are dealing with. You expect some sort of magic morality of your own making ... It's not coming. Not now, not ever.
