@m_train Gaming yes Obama was the worst president out of the bunch

[@user-ImperialPravda]

No

[@BiG-JuPO1O1]

@m_train Gaming To say Obama is the worst president is ridiculous statement. This man had class and repsect, and acted like a leader should act. Obama had it hard cleaning up Bush mess and Republicans making it hard for him to do anything. Obama at least helped us get out Economy crisis cause by Bush and Republicans, Obama helped create more jobs and lower gas prices. His polices were decent and at least people loved his personality compared to Trump who acts like a child and relies on lies to cover up his crimes.

[@carlosvelarde7355]

@sylver mink 73 it actually it wasnt he was not a good president he just was special because he was 2 things theyoungest president of the two youngest presidents joh f kennedy and bill clinton and he was blaxk comparing now trump and the ladt 43 presidents before him. But hes achive ment wssnt look it african americans was effexted during his administration more then trump he was just a label the only think he prevented witch was good number 1 we didnt get hillary clinton for president we are tire of bushes so after bush was done and we dont wAnt another clinton so we got to get obams and we didnt get mitt romney presidenxy either that was good and now we gotdonaldtrump and trump is way better then obama i didnt like obamas failiure but by him failing we would didnt get hillary clinton we got donald trump so im thank fullfor hat

Obama had too much momentum not to win two terms. I personally am not his biggest supporter but, it’s impossible to deny how much momentum and energy his campaigns had.

[@cmckown7932]

He really did not have momentum the 2nd time around. He ended up have to tap into the progressive/woke base to get anywhere

[@ram76921]

His second election in 2012 was mundane if we're being honest. He got re-elected with a 9% unemployment rate because the other candidate was bland like plain cheerios.

[@IOS336]

History channel there is a big error in this video : Obama had 69.45M McCain (RIP) had 59.93

He really was a great new hope, I voted for him but he really didn’t do much in his terms.

y 7 lol, polls are coming out showing trump neck and neck with Biden. Republicans killing it in registrations too. I’ll be back in Nov

[@achannel6664]

@y 7 Yes but the polls aren't all that matter, you need to look at demopraghic trends, ideological trends, voter registrations, enthusiasm, primary ternout, how the debates turnout and their effects, conventions, and rallies will effect the election (it most likely will help Trump, but anyways,) basically, polling isn't all that matters. Also the polls were WORSE for Trump in 2016. so, uh, I would say it is at least a bit closer than the polls would like to suggest.

[@justinscott7576]

The Generein Uh, no, look at the polling data from 2016 and now. Trump is at a much worse position now than in 2016. Especially considering demographic shifts.

@@JoeRoe-wp2mu In terms of his policies, Obamacare is destroying the medical system, is Raising premiums for people who are in the system, isn't going to end up with a form of care that is just redistribution of care which is going to hurt the people who are the youngest and the people who are oldest. There's a reason Ezekiel Emanuel who designed his Obamacare program says he wants to die at 75yo. They're going to end up redistributing healthcare and they're going to end up restricting it.
