True, but I'd argue there's a difference between not serving and dodging the draft. Obama was 12 when the draft was abolished.

Just FYI, Biden "dodged the draft" in the exact same way as Trump. 4 deferments for school, one for a previously undisclosed medical reason.

So did Biden, and Obama never served either. So they're pretty crappy examples for this.

Makes you ineligible to criticize either way. And Biden did dodge the draft. Multiple times.

Me? I personally am neither Biden or Obama. I'm a different person altogether.

Your point is that we cannot criticize Trump's draft dodge on the basis that Obama has not served and Biden has dodged the draft too, that's

Biden doesn't insult POWs, war heroes and their families, not does he condone Putin's bounty on US troops.

Did we really need to bail out the auto industry though?

Yes, you did. The amount of foreign investment brought in by merely having a substantial auto industry, more than covers the bail-out. >

Henry Kissinger won the Nobel peace prize. That is not someone I would want to be associated with. Giving it to Obama was just rubbing it in
jelladelta
Though this post is fluffing the man, it could've just had the last two points to count as a better politician than the orange scrotum
joerider555
I think that is what "Obama gate" refers to. The argument is that Trump's impeachment wouldn't have occurred if Obama hadn't ordered it
joerider555
(I left out a lot of caveats and defensive language in the hopes that you will read it charitably)
jelladelta
Eeer... Did Obama order the impeachment?? I'm very over us politics, but I don't think I'd have missed that nugget of info
joerider555
That's what the "Obama gate" thing is supposedly about. But I don't think there is much to back that up

Was handed a Novel Peace Prize for being the first black president. If we're listing truths, we gotta be honest.

He deported more immigrants than trump
DI2EAD
Shhhh only feelings here, not facts.
RisingPhoenix92
The facts are Obama was pressing Republicans to help Dems in reforming immigration law. Yet Reps cant be asked to do work
RisingPhoenix92
And yet somehow was accused of being soft on immigration. Almost like he was trying to work with Congress to fix that shit
BigBullsFan
If they’re in America illegally, aren’t they supposed to be deported?
firehawkcultist
Overwhelming majority of illegal immigrants came over legally for seasonal jobs, hear the rhetoric about "border security" and the
firehawkcultist
demonizing and figure they'd not be let back in if they actually followed the laws so instead risking losing the income choose to stay
firehawkcultist
after their visas expire. This ofc is an simplification but point is the harsher we are on illegal immigrants the more it exacerbates it
AlaskanX
Per year, or total? Cause... he worked on that number a bit longer than Trump has.

i think even by this point he had done more though i havent brushed up on my sources so dont take my word for it

He won it for numerous speeches around the world promoting peace. The fact that he then went ham with drones is beside the point.

American presidents do have a penchant for bombing people, i think it is beyond their control, Eisenhower warned about this, he bombed too

American presidents have a lot of influence how much they bomb and how many homes/hospitals they destroy or how many they civillians kill.

Just watch the Obama - Trump transition
dekket
That is true. Altho the peace prize has always been super political, even tho it's supposed to be the opposite.

The purpose of the price is to move the world towards peace. It has been given to war criminals and terrorists for that purpose in the past.

Quid739
That Trump has done even more to that effect does not mean Obama hasn't done it. I get that such clarification seems misplaced in a tally -
Quid739
- between the two but it is also wrong to present Obama as a bringer of peace. At least he was as much a warmonger as most other presidents.
libaf
Ebola has never been a pandemic. And obamas nobel is a joke considering the amount of drone murders on his watch and orders. I get he's >
AlexSomething
Seems to me we'd have to fuck up royally, or have the virus mutate heavily, for it to ever start a pandemic.
MagnorCriol
Agree on all four points. That sort of inflation only makes room for other people to discard the entire argument.
insongwhang
I agree with you on his fight against ebola
DatDarthCaedus
I think ebola should be included in some fashion, simply because Trump was screaming about Obama's response to it, and how he should 1/2
DatDarthCaedus
have resigned over the 11 cases and 2 deaths caused by ebola in the US (and letting a doctor return to the US for treatment for it).
HelgenBorderPatrol
I would think his nobel prize is less something he earned and more something that was given to him as a symbolic victory for racial equality
HelgenBorderPatrol
Not saying he did or didn't deserve it, but I don't think its really indicative of his actions is all.
libaf
lightyears better than trump, but for fuck's sake don't deify the man.

He’s always been touted like that. You’re 100% right.

DoktorWeasel
Don't deify anyone. There are no perfect people. Putting people on a pedestal as perfect is always going to backfire. You've got to look at
DoktorWeasel
both the good and the bad, and recognize both. Neither invalidates the other. Demanding perfection is foolish, and projecting it more so.

I don’t think even President Obama knew why he was awarded a Nobel prize so early in his term. It was like they gave it to him for all (1)

He’s done a few things, particularly related to trade war and tariffs, that could be construed as success from a certain viewpoint.

First Step Act from what I understand is good right? Or am I a stupid baby? I want to be educated.

And from many other viewpoints, the trade war and tariffs have been a failure due to how they've negatively impacted American businesses.

China won the trade war, plain and simple. Trump bankrupted and broke American farmers with his clumsy tariffs. So much winning though..
