Obama bailed out banks while leaving people to fend for themselves (fun fact, home ownership amongst black people never recovered from the 2008), he set the precedence of CEOs not being prosecutable for crimes, he deported 3 mln people, he kept prolonging the Patriot Act, he bombed sovereign countries, he maintained and expanded the surveillance and enforcement infrastructure he inherited from Bush, he thoroughly ignored all climate issues and sent cops to beat up native protesters against an oil pipeline; but hey, he knew how to smile, he could use the syllable words and he convinced you that a Republican healthcare plan was the best thing you could get. Hurray!

It's not that Liberals weren't "good enough". Liberals actively helped create all the tools that Trump needed for his fascist takeover. The difference was that in Obama's world the well-educated middle class was supposed to be a part of the protected class.

Admit it, it's the skin color that is the root of all your hostility.

Ah yes. Presidents doing illegal things started Obama. Man, it must be weird to be so naïve. The racism seems to be clouding your knowledge of history.

Yeah, the people in the USA pretend they choose between a left and a right wing party, but in reality they have been choosing between extreme far right and far right for a long time.

Last human US president was Carter

Carter was the first of post-new deal democrats. It was under his admin that Dems launched anti-union rhetoric (and legislation). His economic advisor literally stated that unionized jobs need to get salary hits.

You know how I know that obama did a fucking fantastic job? Cause he was the first black president. And if he was anything but perfect people would hold it against the black population forever. The dude did a stellar job.

Ah yes, and what did black people get out of his presidency, huh? Economic "recovery" that left them further behind than they were in 2007. Did he actually do anything about systemic racial discrimination? About the mass incarceration that puts one third of black men institutionalized at some point of their lives? About police violence? About access to education? Oh wait, with the last one he continued expanding charter schools to fuck up the poor even further.

Following his release from Yemeni custody, Al-Awlaki had significantly radicalized, and began to speak overtly in support of violence, also condemning the U.S. government's foreign policy towards Muslims. He was linked to Nidal Hasan, the convicted perpetrator of the 2009 Fort Hood shooting, and Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, who attempted to detonate a bomb on Northwest Airlines Flight 253. he was a dual citizen of the U.S. and Yemen, was a key organizer for the Islamist militant group al-Qaeda.

So? Without a court this can be said about anyone. Do you understand why judicial system is important or do I need to draw it for you in crayons?

It sure sounds like you're blaming Trump's rise on Obama. Which just makes it sound like you think Democrats are the only ones with moral agency.
