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.
it lowkey became inevitable when the democrats didn’t make blocking trump from ever being president their #1 focus
Became inevitable when democrats ran Biden the first time… anyone with two brain cells could tell a Biden that doesn’t deliver some absolutely insane legislation was done. He even ran on being a one term president. He needed to stay on that path hard and allow a real primary group to form so there were competing ideas out against Trump. Saying everything is great in the face of massive inflation isn’t really going to cut it.
They wanted to beat him again in another election. I’m pretty sure Biden had the DOJ drag their feet specifically so he could beat him again in another election.
It was said that the DOJ did that on their own. From inside sources, I think believable. But Biden didn’t fight them.
a foolish failed gambit. fuck around and find out typa shit
Yup, and now the world suffers because of democrats unwillingness to say or do anything that might give the impression that they’re making anything even remotely a political attack.
Pretty sure the reasoning was that biden was only barely able to beat trump in 2020 and wouldn’t be able to beat anyone else.
“i would rather normalize running against fascism than lose to a moderate conservative like me”
“Nothing will fundamentally change.”
