A little reality check is in order. Obama lied repeatedly in office.
Show us proof of that mark. Sow us how Obama "lied repeatedly".
All Presidents do, and he was no exception. Now, you can claim whatever lies were minimal and harmless, but I would beg to differ.
During his campaign, "More black men languish in prison that attend colleges across America". Wrong. And let’s not even bring up the fact this was dealing race cards.
Of course, the big whopper “if you like your plan you can keep you plan.” That was a huge one because it was told to sway opinion.
OK... um, that's two....
Allowing the Hilary story to continue that the Benghazi attack was spontaneous due to the uproar caused by an inflammatory video tape.
Nice lie to cover his a$$.
Context once again mark. Obama and clinton recanted - more than once. They were going off data they were given.
I'm pretty sure I know what happened there. When they got a request for more security, they decided it would weaken their position that the situation was under control, so they said no. When the $hit the fan and the Ambassador was killed, Obama told Hilary if she stuck by a story that covered him, he'd support her during her election. She took the blame knowing the media would provide enough cover to survive it which she did.
LOL - you were in the room? Please - the above paragraph is silly. It's all in your head. You have no clue what happened behind closed doors.
You should write fiction.
Has there ever been a president who addressed the general public with such disregard?
Well, as a matter of fact, yes. "You didn't build that" was a statement that put on full display his lack of understanding of America.
LOL - once again, CONTEXT. How can you not know what Obama was talking about?? I guess fox news tells you all you need to know...
His lack of business experience. It displayed the fact his entire life before being in office was academic or political. He had and still has, zero knowledge of how things get done in this country.
Good thing running a country has little in common with running a business. And Obama's experience serving the public is orders of magnitude larger than trump's.
He was voted into the Senate because of how he was packaged, not what was on the inside.
Really? So you know him personally? You've met the man and talked to him? You know what's "on the inside"?
Once again, a delusional statement.
He was in the senate for two years, having accomplished nothing of value, when he announced he was exploring the Presidency. He was a bright, shiny package.
And he served as president for 8 years taking us out of the grips of the largest economic downturn since the Great Depression.
Has there ever been a president to state categorically that "I alone can fix it"?
Is there any statement more narcissist than this?
generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on Earth.
Yeah, funny - I don't see the word "I" in any of what Obama said there. He's saying "we" - as in "We The People"
How about that? (do you know what narcissism is?)
