    Did you like it when he bombed hospitals?

    Did you like it when he promised to pull out, but instead surged troops?

    Did you like it when he supported the rise of ISIS in Syria?

    Did you like it when he betrayed the Kurds?

    Did you like it when he abandoned Egypt’s Mubarek, leading to the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood?

    Did you like it when he expanded drone warfare, killing hundreds of innocent people?

    Yeah he’s better than trump/Republicans, but his failed policies have normalized the Bush-era crimes and have enabled the Trump-era crimes.

    Whitewashing Obama’s disgusting, bloodstained legacy only serves to further degrade our national morality and enable the worst excesses of American fascism.

      I liked Obama a hell of a lot more than Trump, in fact Trump betrayed the Kurds at behest of fellow wannabe dictator Erdogan: Obama used US Troops to defend Kurdistan. So you’re a liar.

      If Obama hadn’t ended US cooperation with Egypt you’d be calling him Genocidobama or some shit over it.

      Under Obama drone usage had strict oversight from his office, Trump signed off on the CIA using drones whenever and wherever they liked.
