    I feel it is necessary to point out that if Obama had done a small fraction of what Trump is accused of, he would have been executed.

      I’d take Obama any day over the alternative, but the fact that he’s heralded as one of the greatest after authorizing the murder of an American citizen without due process is pretty remarkable. His presidency was marked with failure, but he’s a charismatic media darling, and the liberals eat it up just like the right.

        I think it’s impossible to be the president of a world power without compromising at least some of your morality.
